Aldehyde dehydrogenases are enzymes which oxidize a wide variety of aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes using NADP as a cofactor. In mammals at least four different forms of the enzyme are known.
Within this protein family, proteins from molds show allergenic activity [1].
Family-defining Pfam domains (at least one of these domains is present in each family member):
| Pfam domain | Pfam clan | ||
| PF00171 | Aldehyde dehydrogenase family | CL0099 | ALDH-like superfamily |
