Medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD)

UniProt Number:
|
P11310
|
|
Alternate Names:
|
ACADM, medium-chain specific acyl-CoA dehydrogenase
|
|
Structure and Function:
|
MCAD (medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase) is an oxidoreductase enzyme of the mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway that is specific for acyl chain lengths of 4 to 16. Utilizes the electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) as electron acceptor that transfers the electrons to the main mitochondrial respiratory chain via ETF-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETF dehydrogenase).

|
Disease Associations:
|
Defects in ACADM are the cause of medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MCAD deficiency) [MIM:201450], an autosomal recessive disease which causes fasting hypoglycemia, hepatic dysfunction, and encephalopathy, often resulting in death in infancy.
