C302A site-directed mutagenesis of catalytic active center residue, the mutant ALDH1A1 loses both activities Homo sapiens
C303A site-directed mutagenesis of catalytic active center residue, the mutant ALDH1A1 loses both activities Homo sapiens
C456A site-directed mutagenesis of a cysteine residue outside the active center, the mutation has no effect on both the aldehyde-dehydrogenase activity and the GSH/DHLA-dependent NAD+-reduction activity Homo sapiens
E107G site-directed mutagenesis, mutation of a residue that contributes to conformational integrity, the mutant loses its aldehyde-dehydrogenase activity, yet completely retains its GSH/DHLA-dependent NAD+-reduction activity Homo sapiens
G246A/G251A site-directed mutagenesis of NAD+-binding sites, the mutant ALDH1A1 loses both the aldehyde-dehydrogenase activity and the GSH/DHLA-dependent NAD+-reduction activity Homo sapiens
I304K site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant loses its aldehyde-dehydrogenase activity Homo sapiens
additional information ectopic expression of ALDH1A1 decreases the intracellular NAD+/NADH ratio, while knockout of ALDH1A1 increases the NAD+/NADH ratio. Simultaneous knockout of ALDH1A1 and its isozyme ALDH3A1 (EC 1.2.1.5) in lung cancer cell line NCI-H460 inhibits tumor growth in a xenograft model. Moreover, the ALDH1A1 mutants that retain their GSH/DHLA-dependent NAD+ reduction activity and lose their aldehyde-dehydrogenase activity are able to decrease the NAD+/NADH ratio and to rescue the impaired growth of ALDH1A1/3A1 double knockout tumor cells.

additional information ALDH1A1 is highly expressed in lung carcinoma cell line A549 and EKVX, as well as in the large cell carcinoma cell line H460. Isozyme ALDH3A1 (EC 1.2.1.5) shows a similar expression pattern like ALDH1A1. Other members of the aldehyde dehydrogenase family are not expressed in the lung cancer cell lines examined Homo sapiens

additional information the dissociation of NADH from the enzyme is the rate-limiting step for ALDH1A1-mediated aldehyde oxidation. ALDH1A1 can also use glutathione (GSH) and dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) as electron donors to reduce NAD+ to NADH, product identification by thin layer chromatography (TLC). Even though they share the same NAD+-binding sites and the same active sites, the enzymatic mechanism of the GSH/DHLA-dependent NAD+-reduction activity of ALDH1A1 is distinct from its aldehyde-dehydrogenase activity Homo sapiens ?

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a member of the aldehyde dehydrogenase superfamily that oxidizes aldehydes to their corresponding acids, reactions that are coupled to the reduction of NAD+ to NADH Homo sapiens
malfunction H-1299 cells expressing C302A, E107G, and I304K mutant forms of ALDH1A1 lacked aldehyde-dehydrogenase activity Homo sapiens
metabolism ALDH1A1 and ALDH3A1 have the same GSH/DHLA-dependent NAD+-reduction activity Homo sapiens
physiological function aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 increases NADH levels and promotes tumor growth via glutathione/dihydrolipoic acid-dependent NAD+ reduction. ALDH1A1 can also use glutathione (GSH) and dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) as electron donors to reduce NAD+ to NADH. The GSH/DHLA-dependent NAD+-reduction activity of ALDH1A1 is not affected by the aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitor or by mutation of the residues in its aldehyde-binding pocket. It is thus a distinct biochemical reaction from the classic aldehyde-dehydrogenase activity catalyzed by ALDH1A1. The GSH/DHLA-dependent NAD+-reduction activity of ALDH1A1 can decrease cellular NAD(P)+/NAD(P)H ratio and promote tumor growth. The tumor-promoting effect of ALDH1A1 is achieved, at least partially, through decreasing the cellular NAD+/ NADH ratio Homo sapiens
