A larger percentage of persons of Asian decent, have a dominant gene mutation which interferes with the role of an enzyme called acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. The role of this enzyme is to convert acetaldehyde, a metabolite of ethanol (alcohol), into acetic acid. Persons with this mutation therefore experience higher levels of acetaldehyde in their systems when they consume alcohol.
