Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.3.0)
Enables dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase (NADH) activity. Involved in pyruvate decarboxylation to acetyl-CoA and tricarboxylic acid cycle. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including gastrulation; mitochondrial electron transport, NADH to ubiquinone; and sperm capacitation. Located in acrosomal matrix; cilium; and mitochondrion. Part of oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex and pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase deficiency. Orthologous to human DLD (dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase).
