Fatty alcohohNAD oxidoreductase is a complex enzyme which consists of two separate proteins that sequentially catalyze the oxidation of fatty alcohol to fatty aldehyde and to fatty acid that is to say a fatty alcohol dehydrogenase and a fatty aldehyde dehydrogenase (FALDH) activity. Sjogren-Larsson cells were selectively deficient in the FALDH component and had normal activity of fatty alcohol dehydrogenase. Intact fibroblast oxidized octadecanol to fatty acid at <10% of the normal rate but oxidized octadecanal normally confirming that FALDH is specifically affected (Rizzo and Craft, 1991). [Pg.581]
