ENZYME entry: EC 1.3.8.6

Accepted Name
glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase (ETF).
Alternative Name(s)
glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase.
Reaction catalysed
glutaryl-CoA + 2 H(+) + oxidized [electron-transfer flavoprotein] <=> (2E)-butenoyl-CoA + CO2 + reduced [electron-transfer flavoprotein]
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of glutaryl-CoA to glutaconyl-CoA (which remains bound to the enzyme), and the decarboxylation of the latter to crotonyl-CoA (cf. EC 7.2.4.5).
  • FAD is the electron acceptor in the oxidation of the substrate, and its reoxidation by electron-transfer flavoprotein completes the catalytic cycle.
  • The anaerobic, sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfococcus multivorans contains two glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenases: a decarboxylating enzyme (this entry), and a non-decarboxylating enzyme that only catalyzes the oxidation to glutaconyl-CoA (EC 1.3.99.32).
  • Formerly EC 1.3.99.7.
