Rabbit anti-Human NDUFA8 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

P51970

Target Species

Human

Target Name

NDUFA8

Target Full Name

NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] 1 alpha subcomplex subunit 8

Target Function

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.

Target Subcellular Location

Mitochondrion inner membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Mitochondrion intermembrane space. Mitochondrion.

Target Protein Families

Complex I NDUFA8 subunit family

Target Background

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.
