Summary
Predicted to enable short-chain 2-methyl fatty acyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity. Located in cytosol and mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including adult brain; adult brain cell body rind; adult head; gut section; and larval muscle cell. Orthologous to human ACADSB (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase short/branched chain). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
