FAD cofactor: acyl-CoA dehydrogenases
FAD cofactor: acyl-CoA dehydrogenases — mechanism card
- First step of each beta-oxidation cycle
- Riboflavin responds in some fatty-acid-oxidation disorders
- Every beta-oxidation spiral starts with an acyl-CoA dehydrogenase handing electrons to FAD (→ ETF → chain)
Drugs with this mechanism (1)
- FAD — Riboflavin-derived redox cofactor; transfers electrons in fatty-acid oxidation and mitochondrial energy production.
