Adh1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables all-trans-retinol dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity and identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including behavioral response to ethanol; ethanol catabolic process; and retinoid metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including endocrine gland; epidermis; genitourinary system; intestine; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol dependence; late onset Parkinson's disease; and pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to several human genes including ADH1A (alcohol dehydrogenase 1A (class I), alpha polypeptide) and ADH1B (alcohol dehydrogenase 1B (class I), beta polypeptide).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Adh1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

- zinc ion binding
- MDR
- Zinc-binding dehydrogenase
- retinol dehydrogenase
- Alcohol dehydrogenase GroES-like domain
