Reaction: Reducing equivalents from beta-oxidation of fatty acids transfer to ETF
- in pathway: Respiratory electron transport
Electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) is a 63kDa heterodimer composed of alpha and beta subunits and binds one FAD and one AMP per dimer. ETF resides on the matrix face of the mitochondrial inner membrane. Reducing equivalents from the beta-oxidation of fatty acyl CoAs are transferred to ETF, reducing the ETF-bound FAD to FADH2 (Wood 1999).
