Predicted to enable 3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase activity. Predicted to be involved in valine catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within branched-chain amino acid catabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; gut; limb mesenchyme; liver and biliary system; and nervous system. Orthologous to human HIBADH (3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase).
