Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone) activity and protease binding activity. Predicted to contribute to NADH dehydrogenase activity. Predicted to be involved in electron transport coupled proton transport; mitochondrial electron transport, NADH to ubiquinone; and mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I assembly. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; integumental system; respiratory system; retina; and urinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in developmental disorder of mental health and nuclear type mitochondrial complex I deficiency 3. Orthologous to human NDUFS7 (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase core subunit S7).
