Thyroid cancer along with several prostate and renal cancers displayed moderate to strong cytoplasmic staining. Remaining cancer tissues were generally negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
ACADL (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
ACAD4, LCAD
Description
Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, long chain (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family, which is a family of mitochondrial flavoenzymes involved in fatty acid and branched chain amino-acid metabolism. This protein is one of the four enzymes that catalyze the initial step of mitochondrial beta-oxidation of straight-chain fatty acid. Defects in this gene are the cause of long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCAD) deficiency, leading to nonketotic hypoglycemia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
