| electron transfer f. |
a component of a side chain of redox reactions by which electrons are funneled to ubiquinone and thus the electron transport chain; electrons from acyl CoA thioesters and choline are transferred via the flavin of acyl CoA dehydrogenases, dimethylglycine dehydrogenase, and sarcosine dehydrogenase to the FAD prosthetic group of ETF, which is then oxidized via reduction of electron transfer flavoprotein: ubiquinone oxidoreductase (q.v.). Deficiency of ETF results in glutaricaciduria, type II.

| electron transfer flavoprotein:ubiquinone oxidoreductase |
a component of a side chain of redox reactions by which certain electrons are funneled to ubiquinone and hence to the electron transport chain; the oxidoreductase catalyzes the transfer of electrons from electron transfer flavoprotein (q.v.) to ubiquinone via its FAD prosthetic group and iron-sulfur center. Deficiency of the oxidoreductase, an autosomal recessive trait, causes glutaricaciduria, type II.
