Catalytic ActivityIsobutyryl-CoA + ETF = methylacrylyl-CoA + reduced ETF.
CofactorName=FAD; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:57692; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:14752098};
DiseaseIsobutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (IBDD) [MIM:611283]: The symptoms of IBDD generally appear until late in infancy or in childhood and can include poor feeding and growth (failure to thrive), a weakened and enlarged heart (dilated cardiomyopathy), seizures, and low numbers of red blood cells (anemia). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12359132, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15505379, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16857760}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
FunctionHas very high activity toward isobutyryl-CoA. Is an isobutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase that functions in valine catabolism. Plays a role in transcriptional coactivation within the ARC complex. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12359132}.
PathwayAmino-acid degradation; L-valine degradation.
SimilarityBelongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMitochondrion {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11013134}.
SubunitHomotetramer, formed by a dimer of dimers. Subunit of the large multiprotein complex ARC/DRIP. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10235267, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11013134, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14752098}.
Tissue SpecificityDetected at comparable levels in all tissues examined (heart, lung, brain, skeletal muscle, pancreas and placenta). Weakly expressed in liver and kidney.
