General annotation (Comments)

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.

Subunit structure

Complex I is composed of 45 different subunits. Ref.6

Subcellular location

Mitochondrion. Mitochondrion intermembrane space Ref.6.

Domain

Contains four C-X9-C motifs that are predicted to form a helix-coil-helix structure, permitting the formation of intramolecular disulfide bonds.

Post-translational modification

May contain intrachain disulfide bonds, as evidenced by its electrophoretic mobility under reducing vs non-reducing conditions.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the complex I NDUFA8 subunit family.

Contains 2 CHCH domains.
