NDUFA8 - NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase subunit A8 Gene
Also Known as PGIV; CI-19KD; CI-PGIV; MC1DN37
Species: Homo sapiens
About NDUFA8
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 204 orthologues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in heart (RPKM 64.4), testis (RPKM 25.8) and 24 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the complex I 19 kDa subunit family. Mammalian complex I is composed of 45 different subunits. This protein has NADH dehydrogenase activity and oxidoreductase activity. It plays an important role in transfering electrons from NADH to the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme is believed to be ubiquinone. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
