Application in the field of biology
The bcd gene encodes for a flavoprotein oxidoreductase that has great specificity for short-chain fatty acids: butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase. The enzyme catalyzes the a and b desaturation of acyl-CoA substrates[1]. This enzyme doesn’t utilize NAD(H) directly but requires electron transfer flavoproteins to form a complex and transfer electrons from butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase to NAD(H)[2].
The full reaction is shown below:
2 NADH+2Fdox + crotonyl−CoA↔2 NAD+2 Fdred+ butyryl−CoA
