Medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.8.7, "fatty acyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase (ambiguous)", "acyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase (ambiguous)", "acyl dehydrogenase (ambiguous)", "fatty-acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (ambiguous)", "acyl CoA dehydrogenase (ambiguous)", "general acyl CoA dehydrogenase (ambiguous)", "medium-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase", "acyl-CoA:(acceptor) 2,3-oxidoreductase (ambiguous)", "ACADM (gene name).") is an enzyme with systematic name "medium-chain acyl-CoA:electron-transfer flavoprotein 2,3-oxidoreductase". This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
 a medium-chain acyl-CoA + electron-transfer flavoprotein formula_1 a medium-chain trans-2,3-dehydroacyl-CoA + reduced electron-transfer flavoprotein
This enzyme contains FAD as prosthetic group and participates in fatty acid metabolism and PPAR signaling pathway.
