Mitochondrial '''aldehyde dehydrogenase''' (ALDH2) is a single member of ALDH2 family and one of 19 members of ALDH superfamily. It is responsible for metabolism of acetaldehyde, typical metabolite from alcohol consumption, and other aldehydes. It is expressed in variety of tissues with highest level found in liver. Its’ cytosolic isoform has 70% sequence identity. Chromosomal location of ALDH2 is on 12q24.2. Polymorphism in the ALDH2 gene is related to development of alcohol-induced cancer and decreased risk of alcoholism.<ref>DOI:10.1186/1479-7364-2-2-138</ref> ALDH2 gene is 44kpbs long with 13 exons.<ref>DOI:10.1074/jbc.M606477200</ref> | |||

ALDH2 enzyme functions as homotetramer where each monomer consists of two Rossmann fold domains and an oligomerization tail. NAD+ binds to one of the Rossmann folds in the gap between αF and αG helices while leaving pyrophosphate exposed to the solvent. <ref name="nov2020">DOI: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2020.102753</ref> <ref>DOI:10.1016/j.cbi.2012.12.009</ref> | |||
Active site consists of highly conserved Cys-302, Asn-169 and Glu-268 catalytic triad. Cys-302 acting as nucleophile and covalently binding the metabolized aldehyde. Formed thiohemiacetal is stabilized by Asn-169 and hydride is transferred to substrate NAD+. It is agreed upon, that role of Glu-268 is to mediate attack of water molecule on the acyl-sulfur bond.<ref>doi: 10.1016/j.cbi.2012.12.009. Epub 2013 Jan 4. PMID: 23295226; PMCID: PMC3602351</ref> Thr-244 is also highly conserved residue, as it plays role in hydride transfer between substrates. Substitution of this amino acid results in decrease of catalytic efficiency.<ref>doi: 10.1016/j.cbi.2012.12.009</ref> Another conserved residues are Arg84, Lys192, Thr384, Glu399, Ser471, Glu398 and Lys489, all of them negatively effecting catalysis when substituted.<ref>doi: 10.1074/jbc.272.30.18817.

ALDH2 plays crucial role in metabolism of ethanol and lipid breakdown, in responce to oxidative stress of cell and Together with other ALDHs, takes part in breakdown of vast number of diverse aldehydes which might otherwise cause damage to the organism. <ref name="nov2020">DOI: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2020.102753</ref> | |||
Important function of ALDH2 is NAD+ -dependent oxidation of acetaldehyde, however it can also catalyse ester hydrolysis, which is similar in mechanism to acyl-sulfur bond hydrolysis. Efficiency of ester hydrolysis depends on length of chain of substrate, as longer chains tend to decrease rate of conversion. In case of aldehydes, no such drastic trend has been observed. <ref>doi: 10.1002/jbt.10057</ref> In addition to acetaldehyde, for which ALDH2 shows highest affinity among ALDHs, this enzyme also participates in metabolism of biogenic amines, corticosteroids and histamine<ref>doi.org/10.1016/S0021-9258(18)98796-X</ref> or in metabolism of nitroglycerin in mitochondria and nitrates as general.<ref>doi: 10.1172/JCI19267.

''ALDH''2 can be selectively inhibited by Daidzin, as ''ALDH''1 by Antabuse (disulfiram, DS, tetraethylthiuram disulfide), an early alcoholic treatment, as it causes accumulation of acetaldehyde resulting in heavier hangover symptoms. Daidzin is more specific to ''ALDH''2 than to ''ALDH''1, this could be due to a smaller substrate-binding cleft than of ''ALDH''1. The daidzin binding sites are spread over all four subunits. The fully bound daidzin is buried from 90%. The isoflavon ring structure conducts extensive Van der Waals contacts with the surrounding residues, including long contact with Cys302. Cys302 was identified as an important catalyst group. The separation of Daidzin O4′-hydroxyl oxygen from Cys302 sulfur atoms is 3.7 Å, and there is no covalent interaction. Despite the general similarity of the ''ALDH''2 apo and daidzin structures, the conformation has been locally altered. The lateral chain of Cys302 moves 2.5 Å from the site to avoid close contact with the O4′-phenoxy ring of Daidzin. Other isoflavonoid derivatives show some inhibitory impact on ''ALDH''2, although prunetin does not result in structural changes as it binds only one subunit per tetramer. Studies of structural activity indicate that the 7-O position can be replaced by several straight chain alkyls with terminal polar functions such as -OH, -COOH, or -NH<sub>2</sub>. It was observed that longer ethyl group has better hydrophobic interactions resulting in better binding, longer chains can result in lesser affinity due to more complex formation of both polar and nonpolar interactions at the same time<ref>DOI: 10.1021/jm800488j</ref>. | ''ALDH''2 can be selectively inhibited by Daidzin, as ''ALDH''1 by Antabuse (disulfiram, DS, tetraethylthiuram disulfide), an early alcoholic treatment, as it causes accumulation of acetaldehyde resulting in heavier hangover symptoms.

Alda-1 (N-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-ylmethyl)-2,6-dichlorobenzamide) is considered as chemical chaperone for ALDH2. Even though it shares overlapping binding sites with daidzin, binding results in activation of structurally distorted ALDH2. Structural complex of ALDH2 and Alda-1 shows that Alda-1 binds at the entrance to the active site and does not interfere with catalytic residues. As Alda-1 block part of substrate site it is suggested dependence on substrate size. Concentration dependence of Alda-1 activation at saturating concentrations of acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde, benzaldehyde, phenylacetaldehyde and DACA were observed. Smaller linear aldehydes were activated by Alda-1, activation decreases with increasing length of aldehydes. Presence of Alda-1 with ALDH2*2 shows greater activity increase than with WT, this suggests that Alda-1 promotes structural and functional rescue than only increasing effective concentration within active site. Distortions starting with 246 residues through the catalyst site, especially Glu268, ending with Glu478. The site of coenzyme binding is reliant on the coenzyme binding, the active site remains even less ordered. Alda-1 has no direct contact with residues from the active site, but forms close interactions with Phe459 and Trp177 near Phe465 and Glu268. This hypothesizes that the binding of Alda-1 could reorient abnormal dynamics in both regions to improve enzyme efficiency<ref>DOI: 10.1038/nsmb.1737</ref>. | |||
After additional screening another most potent activator was identified as Alda-64 (2-(azepane-1-carbonyl)-N-(2chlorobenzyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzo (b) <1,4> dioxine-6-sulfonamide) as Alda-1 it is more specific in favor of ALDH2. Different mutations react differently to each activator. Alda-64 increased activity of ALDH2*3 and ALDH2*5 to WT levels, greater effect than with Alda-1. On the other hand, ALDH2*4 and ALDH2*5 were activated better by Alda-1. This suggests fundamentally different structural changes in each mutation<ref name="nov2020"/>. | |||
