Biological function summary
The enzyme ALDH5A1 plays an important role in the breakdown of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) an important neurotransmitter. It is known to be part of the GABA degradation complex which controls the levels of GABA in the central nervous system. Balance in GABA concentration is necessary for proper neurotransmission and neurophysiological functions. Consequently ALDH5A1 helps in maintaining the inhibitory effects GABA has on neurons.
Pathways
ALDH5A1 is significant in the GABA shunt pathway an alternative mechanism for glutamate and GABA metabolism. The enzyme collaborates closely with GABA transaminase which converts GABA into succinate semialdehyde before ALDH5A1 further processes it into succinate. This pathway supports energy production and the regulation of carbon flow through central metabolism.
