| UniProt functional annotation for O43678 | |||
| UniProt code: O43678. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Accessory subunit of the mitochondrial membrane respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase (Complex I), that is believed not to be involved in catalysis. Complex I functions in the transfer of electrons from NADH to the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme is believed to be ubiquinone. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27626371}. | |
| Subunit: | Complex I is composed of 45 different subunits. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12611891, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27626371}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Mitochondrion inner membrane {ECO:0000305|PubMed:12611891}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000305}; Matrix side {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Disease: | Mitochondrial complex I deficiency, nuclear type 13 (MC1DN13) [MIM:618235]: A form of mitochondrial complex I deficiency, the most common biochemical signature of mitochondrial disorders, a group of highly heterogeneous conditions characterized by defective oxidative phosphorylation, which collectively affects 1 in 5-10000 live births. Clinical disorders have variable severity, ranging from lethal neonatal disease to adult-onset neurodegenerative disorders. Phenotypes include macrocephaly with progressive leukodystrophy, non-specific encephalopathy, cardiomyopathy, myopathy, liver disease, Leigh syndrome, Leber hereditary optic neuropathy, and some forms of Parkinson disease. MC1DN13 transmission pattern is consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18513682}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the complex I NDUFA2 subunit family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
