Abstract excerpt

ALDH isozymes have been characterized in terms of substrate and coenzyme specificity, heat stability, tissue distribution and electrophoretic properties. The activity of the isozymes has also been examined in rodent-human somatic cell hybrids in order to map the structural genes to specific chrom...
