General annotation (Comments)

Function	Catalyzes the irreversible reduction of the cytotoxic compound methylglyoxal (MG) to (R)-lactaldehyde as an alternative to detoxification of MG by glyoxalase I GLO1. MG is synthesized via a bypath of glycolysis from dihydroxyacetone phosphate and is believed to play a role in cell cycle regulation and stress adaptation. Ref.4 Ref.5
Catalytic activity	Lactaldehyde + NADP+ = methylglyoxal + NADPH. Ref.4 Ref.5
Enzyme regulation	Activated by glutathione.
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Ref.9
Induction	Repressed by SKO1. During osmotic stress, this repression is relieved. Induced by transcription factor YAP1 during oxidative stress, and induced by ionic and heat stress. Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.8
Miscellaneous	Present with 5458 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. Ref.10 'De respuesta a estres' means stress response in Spanish.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the dihydroflavonol-4-reductase family.
