General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction methylglyoxal accumulation leads to G2-phase arrest by affecting cell growth, ROS production, viability, differentiation, and virulence. Phenotypes of enzyme-deficient cells, overview Candida albicans
physiological function the enzyme catalyzes both methylglyoxal oxidation to pyruvate as well as its reduction to acetol. ADH1 activity likely shifts between methylglyoxal oxidation and reduction with a marked change in the intracellular redox state during the growth, such as GSH starvation. The enzyme is required for regulation of methylglyoxal content in the cell. Mgd activity is highly induced in GSH-deficient cells Candida albicans
