Acetyl-CoA carboxylase-alpha deficiency (ACACAD) is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism caused by mutations in ACACA. ACACAD is characterized by hypotonia, motor and intellectual developmental delay. ACACA encodes acetyl-CoA carboxylase which is the rate-limiting enzyme in the de novo biosynthesis of fatty acids.
