RT   lens. Gene recruitment of eta-crystallin.";

CC   -!- FUNCTION: Major component of the eye of elephant shrews, which in
CC       contrast to other mammals, possesses both a lens- and a non-lens class-
CC       1 aldehyde dehydrogenase 1. This eye-specific form is a structural
CC       protein of the lens and, in other part of the eye, serves as the major
CC       form of ALDH1. Can convert/oxidize retinaldehyde to retinoic acid.
CC   -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC       Reaction=an aldehyde + H2O + NAD(+) = a carboxylate + 2 H(+) + NADH;
CC         Xref=Rhea:RHEA:16185, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378,

CC         ChEBI:CHEBI:57945; EC=1.2.1.3;
CC   -!- PATHWAY: Alcohol metabolism; ethanol degradation; acetate from ethanol:
CC       step 2/2.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Homotetramer. {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Eye specific, with very high expression in the
CC       lens.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family.
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
