NDUFS4 NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase subunit S4

Gene ID: 4724, updated on 3-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: AQDQ; CI-18; MC1DN1; CI-AQDQ; CI-18 kDa

Summary

This gene encodes an nuclear-encoded accessory subunit of the mitochondrial membrane respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase (complex I, or NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase). Complex I removes electrons from NADH and passes them to the electron acceptor ubiquinone. Mutations in this gene can cause mitochondrial complex I deficiencies such as Leigh syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
