Gene information for HADHB (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3032
Official gene symbolHADHB
Full namehydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase/3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase/enoyl-CoA hydratase (trifunctional protein), beta subunit
Aliases,ECHB,MGC87480,MSTP029,MTPB,TP-BETA,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes the beta subunit of the mitochondrial trifunctional protein, which catalyzes the last three steps of mitochondrial beta-oxidation of long chain fatty acids. The mitochondrial membrane-bound heterocomplex is composed of four alpha and four beta subunits, with the beta subunit catalyzing the 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase activity. Mutations in this gene result in trifunctional protein deficiency. The encoded protein can also bind RNA and decreases the stability of some mRNAs. The genes of the alpha and beta subunits of the mitochondrial trifunctional protein are located adjacent to each other in the human genome in a head-to-head orientation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found; however, their full-length nature is not known. [provided by RefSeq]
