It also acts as a catalyst for the formation of 3-ketoacyl-CoA intermediates from both straight-chain and 2-methyl-branched-chain fatty acids. Defects in this gene that affect the peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation activity are a cause of D-bifunctional protein deficiency (DBPD). An apparent pseudogene of this gene is present on chromosome 8. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.

DBPD is a disorder of peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation.,function:Bifunctional enzyme acting on the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway for fatty acids. Catalyzes the formation of 3-ketoacyl-CoA intermediates from both straight-chain and 2-methyl-branched-chain fatty acids.,pathway:Lipid metabolism; fatty acid beta-oxidation.,similarity:Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.,similarity:Contains 1 SCP2 domain.,tissue specificity:Present in many tissues with highest concentrations in liver, heart, prostate and testis., Research Area: Primary bile acid biosynthesis;
