    Summary
    Predicted to enable aldehyde dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity. Predicted to be involved in aldehyde metabolic process. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in hypodermis and intestine. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Sjogren-Larsson syndrome and arteriosclerosis. Orthologous to several human genes including ALDH3A1 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 3 family member A1); ALDH3A2 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 3 family member A2); and ALDH3B1 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 3 family member B1).
