ChlADR1

Gene
ChlADR1
Protein
NADPH-dependent aldehyde reductase 1, chloroplastic
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
288 amino acids
Function
Aldehyde reductase that catalyzes the reduction of the aldehyde carbonyl groups on saturated and alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes with more than 5 carbons (PubMed:21169366). No activity on alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones (PubMed:21169366). Can use propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde, methylglyoxal, (e)-2-pentenal, (E)-2-hexenal, (Z)-3-hexenal and (E)-2-nonenal as substrates, but not propenal (acrolein), crotonaldehyde, 2-butanone, 3-buten-2-one or 1-penten-3-one (PubMed:21169366). May act as a short alcohol-polyol-sugar dehydrogenase possibly related to carbohydrate metabolism and the acquisition of desiccation tolerance (By similarity). May also be involved in signal transduction (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
