This gene encodes an enzyme involved in the catabolism of
choline, catalyzing the oxidative demethylation of dimethylglycine
to form sarcosine. The enzyme is found as a monomer in the
mitochondrial matrix, and uses flavin adenine dinucleotide and
folate as cofactors. Mutation in this gene causes dimethylglycine
dehydrogenase deficiency, characterized by a fishlike body odor,
chronic muscle fatigue, and elevated levels of the muscle form of
creatine kinase in serum.1) Mostowska, A., et al. Eur. J. Oral Sci. 118(4):325-332(2010)
