Long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase

Field	Value
Name	Long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase
EC_number	1.3.8.8
CAS_number	59536-74-2
GO_code	0004466

Long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (, palmitoyl-CoA dehydrogenase, palmitoyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase, long-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase, long-chain-acyl-CoA:(acceptor) 2,3-oxidoreductase, ACADL (gene).) is an enzyme with systematic name long-chain acyl-CoA:electron-transfer flavoprotein 2,3-oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

: a long-chain acyl-CoA + electron-transfer flavoprotein \rightleftharpoons a long-chain trans-2,3-dehydroacyl-CoA + reduced electron-transfer flavoprotein

This enzyme contains FAD as prosthetic group and participates in fatty acid metabolism and PPAR signaling pathway. Mitochondrial mutations in this enzyme may be associated with some forms of dilated cardiomyopathy.
