Immunoprecipitation of ADH4 transfected lysate using anti-ADH4 MaxPab rabbit polyclonal antibody and Protein A Magnetic Bead (U0007), and immunoblotted with ADH4 MaxPab mouse polyclonal antibody (B01) (H00000127-B01).
This gene encodes class II alcohol dehydrogenase 4 pi subunit, which is a member of the alcohol dehydrogenase family. Members of this enzyme family metabolize a wide variety of substrates, including ethanol, retinol, other aliphatic alcohols, hydroxysteroids, and lipid peroxidation products. Class II alcohol dehydrogenase is a homodimer composed of 2 pi subunits. It exhibits a high activity for oxidation of long-chain aliphatic alcohols and aromatic alcohols and is less sensitive to pyrazole. This gene is localized to chromosome 4 in the cluster of alcohol dehydrogenase genes. [provided by RefSeq
