Term Name:	short-chain fatty acyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity
Synonyms:	butanoyl-CoA dehydrogenase, butyryl dehydrogenase, short-chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase, unsaturated acyl-CoA reductase
Definition:	Catalysis of the reaction: a short-chain 2,3-saturated fatty acyl-CoA + H+ + oxidized [electron-transfer flavoprotein] = a short-chain (2E)-enoyl-CoA + reduced [electron-transfer flavoprotein]. A short-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing fewer than 6 carbons.
