ALDH2 is the second enzyme of the major oxidative pathway of alcohol metabolism. ALDH2 has 2 major liver isoforms: cytosolic and mitochondrial, which differ by their electrophoretic mobilities, kinetic properties, and subcellular localizations. Nearly all Caucasians have 2 major isozymes, whereas roughly 50% of Orientals have only the cytosolic isozyme, omitting the mitochondrial isozyme. The extremely higher rate of acute alcohol intoxication with Orientals compared to Caucasians is due to the fact of the absence of mitochondrial isozyme. ALDH2 has a low Km for acetaldehydes, and is localized in mitochondrial matrix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-desc\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#1a5c58;margin:12px 0 4px\"\u003eBiological Activity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecific activity was found to be \u0026gt; 250pmol\/min\/ug, and was obtained by measuring the increase of NADH in absorbance at 340 nm resulting from the reduction of NAD at pH 8.0 at 25°C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-desc\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#1a5c58;margin:12px 0 4px\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:0.92em\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:4px 8px;background:#e8f4f3;width:180px;font-weight:bold\"\u003ePurity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:4px 8px\"\u003eGreater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:4px 8px;background:#e8f4f3;width:180px;font-weight:bold\"\u003eFormulation\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:4px 8px\"\u003eALDH2 protein (1mg\/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH-7.5, 1mM DTT, 1mM EDTA and 10% Glycerol.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:4px 8px;background:#e8f4f3;width:180px;font-weight:bold\"\u003eStorage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:4px 8px\"\u003eStore at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks.
