Function of your protein
serves as a metabolic housekeeping enzyme due to its ability to detoxify aldehydes, which are highly reactive compounds generated through cellular. It can also scavenge aldehyde from lipid peroxidation and convert them to a less chemically reactive carboxylic acid. Aldc additionally plays an important role in ethanol metabolism via oxidation of acetaldehyde into acetate, metabolism of polyamine, and plant cell wall ester biogenesis,as you can be by the .
