Also acts, more slowly, on glycolaldehyde, propanal and butanal. In several bacterial species this enzyme forms a bifunctional complex with EC 4.1.3.39, 4-hydroxy-2-oxovalerate aldolase. The enzymes from the bacteria Burkholderia xenovorans and Thermus thermophilus also perform the reaction of EC 1.2.1.87, propanal dehydrogenase (propanoylating). Involved in the meta-cleavage pathway for the degradation of phenols, methylphenols and catechols. NADP+ can replace NAD+ but the rate of reaction is much slower .

DmpFG is a bifunctional enzyme comprised of an aldolase subunit, DmpG, and a dehydrogenase subunit, DmpF. The aldehyde intermediate produced by the aldolase is channeled directly through a buried molecular channel in the protein structure from the aldolase to the dehydrogenase active site. Binding and channeling of alternative substrates in the enzyme DmpFG, molecular dynamics, overview

DmpFG catalyzes the final two steps of the meta-cleavage pathway of catechol and its methylated substituents. This pathway breaks down toxic waste products such as naphthalenes, salicylates, and benzoates to harmless metabolites

composed of two dimers, one dimer accounts for 4-hydroxy-2-ketovalerate aldolase, subunit size 37500, and one for acylating acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, subunit size 32500
site-directed mutagenesis, the barrier into the dehydrogenase active site region has been virtually eliminated such that acetaldehyde is transported from one active site to the other in a downhill process
Purification and properties of the physically associated meta-cleavage pathway enzymes 4-hydroxy-2-ketovalerate aldolase and aldehyde dehydrogenase (acylating) from Pseudomonas sp. strain CF600
The 4-hydroxy-2-oxovalerate aldolase and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (acylating) encoded by the nahM and nahO genes of the naphthalene catabolic plasmid pWW60-22 provide further evidence of conservation of meta-cleavage pathway gene sequences
