Gene information for ACADL (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID33
Official gene symbolACADL
Full nameacyl-CoA dehydrogenase, long chain
Aliases,ACAD4,FLJ94052,LCAD,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene belongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family, which is a family of mitochondrial flavoenzymes involved in fatty acid and branched chain amino-acid metabolism. This protein is one of the four enzymes that catalyze the initial step of mitochondrial beta-oxidation of straight-chain fatty acid. Defects in this gene are the cause of long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCAD) deficiency, leading to nonketotic hypoglycemia. [provided by RefSeq]
