Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to contribute to oxoglutarate dehydrogenase (succinyl-transferring) activity. Involved in 2-oxoglutarate metabolic process and tricarboxylic acid cycle. Located in mitochondrion. Part of mitochondrial oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; gonad; heart; liver; and metanephros. Orthologous to human KGD4 (alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase subunit 4).
