| UniProt code: P00326. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=a primary alcohol + NAD(+) = an aldehyde + H(+) + NADH; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:10736, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:15734, ChEBI:CHEBI:17478, ChEBI:CHEBI:57540, ChEBI:CHEBI:57945; EC=1.1.1.1; | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=a secondary alcohol + NAD(+) = a ketone + H(+) + NADH; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:10740, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:17087, ChEBI:CHEBI:35681, ChEBI:CHEBI:57540, ChEBI:CHEBI:57945; EC=1.1.1.1; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Note=Binds 2 Zn(2+) ions per subunit.; | |
| Subunit: | Dimer of identical or non-identical chains of three types; alpha, beta and gamma. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11274460, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15449945}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm. | |
| Polymorphism: | Two main alleles are known, ADH3*1 or gamma-1 has Arg- 272/Ile-350 while ADH3*2 or gamma-2 has Gln-272/Val-350. ADH3*1 is associated with a fast rate of ethanol oxidation and ADH3*2 with a slow rate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:3758060}. | |
| Miscellaneous: | There are 7 different ADH's isozymes in human: three belongs to class-I: alpha, beta, and gamma, one to class-II: pi, one to class-III: chi, one to class-IV: ADH7 and one to class-V: ADH6. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
