Acad9 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable long-chain fatty acyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity and medium-chain fatty acyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity. Predicted to be involved in long-chain fatty acid metabolic process; medium-chain fatty acid metabolic process; and mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I assembly. Predicted to be located in dendrite; mitochondrial membrane; and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nuclear type mitochondrial complex I deficiency 20. Orthologous to human ACAD9 (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family member 9). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Acad9 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
