Summary: Enables several functions, including acyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity; flavin adenine dinucleotide binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including fatty acid catabolic process; response to copper ion; and response to glucocorticoid. Located in mitochondrial matrix and mitochondrial membrane. Biomarker of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency. Orthologous to human ACADM (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase medium chain). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
