ALDH5A1 also known as succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) functions in the cellular metabolism where it converts succinate semialdehyde to succinate in the presence of NAD+. This enzyme has a molecular weight of approximately 56 kDa and is largely found in the brain as well as in other organs like liver and kidney. ALDH5A1 operates in mitochondria emphasizing its role in cellular respiration and energy production.
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.

ALDH5A1 deficiencies link to disorders like Succinic Semialdehyde Dehydrogenase deficiency (SSADH deficiency) and GABA-transaminase deficiency. These conditions result in the accumulation of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid leading to neurological complications. This enzyme interacts with proteins like GABA transaminase which shows the importance of its proper function in preventing neurologic disease.
