NDUFA5

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.

Belongs to the complex I NDUFA5 subunit family.

Expressed in all tissues examined with highest levels in heart, skeletal muscle and brain.
