Description

ACBD5 encodes a peroxisomal membrane protein containing an acyl-CoA binding domain. It is involved in very long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) metabolism and peroxisome-endoplasmic reticulum contact sites. Mutations in ACBD5 cause a peroxisomal disorder characterized by retinal dystrophy, leukodystrophy, and progressive neurological impairment.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase deficiency (pseudo-neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy) Loss of ACBD5 function disrupts VLCFA beta-oxidation, leading to accumulation of VLCFAs and peroxisomal dysfunction. OMIM #616618; ClinVar
Retinal dystrophy with leukodystrophy Impaired peroxisome-ER contact sites due to ACBD5 deficiency affect lipid homeostasis and myelin maintenance. OMIM #616618; PubMed: 28165322

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.355C>T (p.Arg119*) Nonsense Rare Loss of function; truncated protein
c.1A>G (p.Met1?) Start loss Rare Loss of function; no protein translation
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Nonsense and start-loss mutations lead to absent or non-functional ACBD5 protein, impairing peroxisomal VLCFA oxidation.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No dominant-negative mutations reported.

Gene Ontology (GO)

• GO:0005777 (peroxisome) • GO:0000062 (acyl-CoA binding)
• GO:0033540 (fatty acid beta-oxidation using acyl-CoA oxidase) • GO:0016021 (integral component of membrane)

Pathways

Peroxisomal beta-oxidation of VLCFAs
Peroxisome-ER contact site formation

Protein Summary

ACBD5 is a 506-amino acid peroxisomal membrane protein with an N-terminal acyl-CoA binding domain. It anchors peroxisomes to the endoplasmic reticulum via interaction with VAPB, facilitating lipid transfer and VLCFA metabolism. Loss of function leads to peroxisomal dysfunction and neurological disease.
