THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF HUMAN SSADH IN COMPLEX WITH NAD+
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 19300440
Disease
[SSDH_HUMAN] Defects in ALDH5A1 are the cause of succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency (SSADH deficiency) [MIM:271980]. SSADH deficiency is a rare inborn error in the metabolism of 4-aminobutyric acid (GABA) which leads to accumulation of 4-hydroxybutyric acid in physiologic fluids of patients. The disease is characterized by severe ataxia and by mildly retarded psychomotor development.
Function
[SSDH_HUMAN] Catalyzes one step in the degradation of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).[1]
