Acetaldehyde dehydrogenases ... are dehydrogenase enzymes which convert acetaldehyde into acetic acid. The oxidation of acetaldehyde to acetate can be summarized as follows: CH3CHO + NAD+ + CoA = acetyl-CoA + NADH + H+. 2, record 5, English, - acetaldehyde%20dehydrogenase

Aldehyde dehydrogenases have a broad substrate specificity. Oxidation of aldehydes is considered to be generally a detoxification reaction, removing the electrophilic products of alcohol oxidation. For example, alcohol dehydrogenase oxidizes ethanol to acetaldehyde, responsible for some "hangover" symptoms, and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase detoxifies this to acetic acid. 3, record 5, English, - acetaldehyde%20dehydrogenase
