Summary: Predicted to enable aldehyde dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including chordate embryonic development; myelination; and tube morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including head; heart; immature eye; mesoderm; and pleuroperitoneal region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Orthologous to human ALDH1A2 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 family member A2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
