Summary: Enables alcohol dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to xenobiotic stimulus and ethanol metabolic process. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in female organism; intestine; liver; and ovary. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol dependence; late onset Parkinson's disease; and pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to several human genes including ADH1A (alcohol dehydrogenase 1A (class I), alpha polypeptide); ADH1B (alcohol dehydrogenase 1B (class I), beta polypeptide); and ADH1C (alcohol dehydrogenase 1C (class I), gamma polypeptide).

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.
