Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Enables 3-chloroallyl aldehyde dehydrogenase activity and aldehyde dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including response to cAMP; response to glucocorticoid; and response to hypoxia. Predicted to act upstream of or within lipid metabolic process. Located in cytoplasm and membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; decidua; early conceptus; gonad; and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in arteriosclerosis. Orthologous to human ALDH3A1 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 3 family member A1).
