Alcohol dehydrogenase is involved in the metabolism of alcohol. a cytoplasmic version of the enzyme catalyses the conversion of alcohol to acetaldehyde and a mitochondrial version catalyses the conversion of acetaldehyde to acetate, see reactions below. some people react to the consumption of alcohol with the appearance of a facial flush. in less than 100 words total i) name the biochemical basis for this physiological reaction and ii) explain in the language of this unit how the enzymatic properties of alcohol dehydrogenase relate to this physiological reaction.
