More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: A flavoprotein oxidoreductase that has specificity for long-chain fatty acids. It forms a complex with ELECTRON-TRANSFERRING FLAVOPROTEINS and conveys reducing equivalents to UBIQUINONE.  ACYL-COA DEHYDROGENASE is also available    Other names Very Long Chain Acyl CoA Dehydrogenase; Long-Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase; Long Chain Acyl Coenzyme A Dehydrogenase; Dehydrogenase, Very-Long-Chain Acyl-CoA; Long Chain Acyl CoA Dehydrogenase; Dehydrogenase, Long-Chain-Acyl-Coenzyme A; Dehydrogenase, Long-Chain-Acyl-CoA; Dehydrogenase, Long-Chain Acyl-CoA; Dehydrogenase, Decanoyl CoA; CoA-Dehydrogenase, Decanoyl; CoA Dehydrogenase, Decanoyl; Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase, Very-Long-Chain; Acyl CoA Dehydrogenase, Long Chain; Very-Long-Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase; Long-Chain-Acyl-Coenzyme A Dehydrogenase; Decanoyl CoA-Dehydrogenase; Decanoyl CoA Dehydrogenase; VLCAD; Long-Chain-Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase
