Its function has not been entirely elucidated; however, it is similar in sequence and function to acyl-CoA dehydrogenases [, ]. It has been proposed that aidB directly destroys DNA alkylating agents such as nitrosoguanidines (nitrosated amides) or their reaction intermediates [, ]. | Name | Putative acyl-CoA dehydrogenase AidB |
