Mammalian alcohol dehydrogenases (ADH) 3 form a com-plex enzyme system based on amino-acid sequence, func-tional properties, and gene expression pattern. At least four mouseAdhgenes are known to encode di erent enzyme classes that share less than 60% amino-acid sequence iden-tity. Two ADH-containing and overlapping C57BL/6 bacterial arti®cial chromosome clones, RP23-393J8 and -463H24, were identi®ed in a library screen, physically mapped, and sequenced. | Eur. J.

At least four mouse Adh genes are known to encode different enzyme classes that share less than 60 amino-acid sequence identity. Two ADH-containing and overlapping C57BL 6 bacterial artifcial chromosome clones RP23-393J8 and -463H24 were identified in a library screen physically mapped and sequenced. The gene order in the complex and two new mouse genes Adh5a and Adh5b and a pseudogene Adh5ps were obtained from the physical map and sequence. The mouse genes are all in the same transcriptional orientation in the order Adh4-Adh1-Adh5a-Adh5b-Adh5ps-Adh2-Adh3. A phylogenetic tree analysis shows that adjacent genes are most closely related suggesting a series of duplication events resulted in the gene complex. Although mouse and human ADH gene clusters contain at least one gene for ADH classes I-V the human cluster contains 3 class I genes while the mouse cluster has two class V genes plus a class V pseudogene. Keywords alcohol dehydrogenase mouse gene complex. The alcohol dehydrogenases ADHs EC are zinc-containing dimeric enzymes found in the cytosolic fraction of the cell that are capable of reversible oxidation of a spectrum of primary and secondary alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes and ketones. Mammalian ADHs currently known are grouped into six distinct classes 1-3 with members of different classes sharing less .
