Summary
Predicted to enable electron transfer activity and flavin adenine dinucleotide binding activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid beta-oxidation using acyl-CoA dehydrogenase. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in intestine. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency. Orthologous to human ETFA (electron transfer flavoprotein subunit alpha). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
