Function
catalytic activity:Acyl-CoA + NADP(+) = trans-2,3-dehydroacyl-CoA + NADPH.,function:Catalyzes the reduction of trans-2-enoyl-CoA to acyl-CoA with chain length from C6 to C16 in an NADPH-dependent manner with preference to medium chain length substrate. May have a role in the mitochondrial synthesis of fatty acids.,similarity:Belongs to the zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family. Quinone oxidoreductase subfamily.,subunit:Homodimer.,tissue specificity:Highly expressed in skeletal and heart muscle. Expressed at lower level in placenta, liver, kidney and pancreas. Weakly or not expressed in lung.,
