Reaction: cyclohexane-1-carbonyl-CoA + electron-transfer flavoprotein = cyclohex-1-ene-1-carbonyl-CoA + reduced electron-transfer flavoprotein
Other name(s): aliB (gene name); cyclohexane-1-carbonyl-CoA dehydrogenase (ambiguous)
Systematic name: cyclohexane-1-carbonyl-CoA:electron transfer flavoprotein oxidoreductase
Comments: Contains FAD. The enzyme, characterized from the strict anaerobic bacterium Syntrophus aciditrophicus, is involved in production of cyclohexane-1-carboxylate, a byproduct produced by that organism during fermentation of benzoate and crotonate to acetate.
