Medium-chain specific acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, mitochondrial (ACADM)

Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase specific for acyl chain lengths of 4 to 16 that catalyzes the first step of fatty acid beta- oxidation. Utilizes the electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) as an electron acceptor to transfer electrons to the key mitochondrial respiratory chain via ETF-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETF dehydrogenase).
