Description

Alcohol dehydrogenase from yeast is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the metabolism of alcohol. It is involved in the oxidation of ethanol to acetaldehyde, which is then converted to acetate by aldehyde dehydrogenase. Alcohol dehydrogenase has been shown to have potential therapeutic applications in the treatment of various diseases such as cancer and Alzheimer's disease. Studies have found that this enzyme can inhibit the activity of GSK-3β, a protein kinase that is involved in the development of these diseases. Additionally, alcohol dehydrogenase has been found to increase the expression of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), which regulates ion channels and glutamate release in the brain. This increase in VIP levels may also have potential therapeutic benefits for neurological disorders. Cabotegravir, a long-acting HIV prevention drug, has also been found to interact with alcohol dehydrogenase, potentially increasing its toxicity as a toxin against HIV. Overall, alcohol dehydrogen
