Recombinant strains of Acetobacter aceti, cloned with either alcohol dehydrogenase or aldehyde dehydrogenase, have been tested for vinegar production. The bacteria with the aldehyde dehydrogenase gene produced acetic acid more rapidly than those with the alcohol dehydrogenase, and were more resistant to high concentrations of acetic acid. 

The syndrome is caused by a particular mutation in the gene encoding fatty aldehyde dehydrogenase (gene FALDH3A2). About 1.3% of the population of northern Sweden is heterozygous for the defective gene.
