| 1.2.1.24 | physiological function |
enzyme SSADH is a NAD+-dependent mitochondrial homotetrameric allosteric enzyme and works with gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transaminase to convert GABA to succinic semialdehyde (SSA) which is, in turn, oxidized by SSADH to succinic acid. Besides its established role in GABA catabolism, SSADH is reported to contribute to the antioxidative mitochondrial defence by oxidation of 4-hydroxynonenal, a degradation end product of peroxidated lipids |
