Abstract excerpt
BALB/cByJ mice have a deficiency of short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD), an enzyme of fatty acid beta-oxidation. This mutant mouse strain represents the only animal model for any human inborn error of fatty acid metabolism. We have investigated the molecular basis of this defect by DNA and...
