Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.3.0)
Enables 3-chloroallyl aldehyde dehydrogenase activity and retinal dehydrogenase activity. Involved in cellular response to retinoic acid. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including circulatory system development; nervous system development; and retinoid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Used to study DiGeorge syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Orthologous to human ALDH1A2 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 family member A2).
