Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone) activity. Involved in mitochondrial electron transport, NADH to ubiquinone. Located in myelin sheath. Part of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I. Is active in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including integumental system; reproductive system; respiratory system; sensory organ; and skeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease and nuclear type mitochondrial complex I deficiency 7. Orthologous to human NDUFV2 (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase core subunit V2).
