[5][6][7] This gene encodes D-2hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenase is a mitochondrial enzyme belonging to the FAD-binding oxidoreductase/transferase type 4 family.
This enzyme, which is most active in liver and kidney but also active in heart and brain, converts D-2-hydroxyglutarate to 2-ketoglutarate.
Mutations in this gene are present in D-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria, a rare recessive neurometabolic disorder causing developmental delay, epilepsy, hypotonia, and dysmorphic features.
