Description

The HADH gene encodes the short-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCHAD), a mitochondrial enzyme involved in the beta-oxidation of fatty acids. It catalyzes the conversion of 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA to 3-ketoacyl-CoA, a key step in energy production from fatty acids. Mutations in HADH cause HADH deficiency, leading to hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia and metabolic disorders.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemia, Familial, 4 Loss of SCHAD enzyme activity impairs fatty acid oxidation, leading to inappropriate insulin secretion ClinVar, OMIM
3-Hydroxyacyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency Deficient enzyme disrupts beta-oxidation, causing hypoglycemia, hepatomegaly, and metabolic acidosis NCBI Gene, OMIM

Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Most HADH mutations are loss-of-function, reducing or abolishing SCHAD enzyme activity, leading to impaired fatty acid oxidation and hypoglycemia.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No dominant-negative mutations reported.

Gene Ontology (GO)

• 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity • mitochondrial matrix
• fatty acid beta-oxidation • NAD binding

Pathways

Fatty acid beta-oxidation (mitochondrial)
Metabolic pathways

Protein Summary

The HADH protein (SCHAD) is a 34 kDa mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the third step of fatty acid beta-oxidation. It is a homodimer that uses NAD+ as a cofactor. Deficiency leads to accumulation of 3-hydroxyacyl-CoAs and metabolic crisis.
