Aldh1a1, the mouse ortholog of human ALDH1A1, encodes the cytosolic NAD+-dependent retinaldehyde dehydrogenase RALDH1, which performs the irreversible oxidation of retinaldehyde to all-trans retinoic acid and thereby supplies ligand to nuclear RAR and RXR heterodimers in dorsal retina, liver, lung, and visceral adipose tissue. The same tetrameric active site detoxifies reactive lipid aldehydes such as 4-hydroxynonenal and metabolizes oxazaphosphorine chemotherapeutics, which is why high enzyme activity defines ALDEFLUOR-positive tumor populations and cyclophosphamide resistance. Since germline nulls are viable and fertile, constitutive deletion suits metabolic and adipose questions, whereas conditional floxed alleles isolate autonomous requirements in retina or tumor compartments, and catalytically dead point knockins separate enzymatic output from noncatalytic roles. Be aware that Aldh1a2, Aldh1a3, and Aldh8a1 generate retinoic acid in overlapping domains, so single-locus loss is often buffered. Humanized knockins are the correct substrate for isoform-selective inhibitor pharmacology, while compound Raldh genetics is required to collapse local retinoid signaling outright.
ingenious targeting laboratory offers 2 distinct Aldh1a1 (ALDH1A1) catalog mouse models in the Retinoic acid axis family, featuring conditional knockout and standard knockout. Researchers can order pre-developed catalog lines or request a custom mouse model, including humanized, knockin, and transgenic variations with verified germline transmission.

Order catalog modelA Aldh1a1 knockout mouse has the Aldh1a1 gene permanently inactivated, enabling loss of function studies. A Aldh1a1 conditional knockout (floxed) mouse carries loxP sites flanking a critical exon of Aldh1a1, allowing Cre recombinase dependent deletion in specific tissues or at specific timepoints.
