About NDUFB2

Cytogenetic location: 7q34 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:140,696,708-140,706,643 (from NCBI)

This gene has 15 transcripts (splice variants) and 222 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in heart (RPKM 93.9), kidney (RPKM 78.0) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of the multisubunit NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I). Mammalian complex I is composed of 45 different subunits. This protein has NADH dehydrogenase activity and oxidoreductase activity. It plays a important role in transfering electrons from NADH to the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the Enzyme is believed to be ubiquinone. Hydropathy analysis revealed that this subunit and 4 other subunits have an overall hydrophilic pattern, even though they are found within the hydrophobic protein (HP) fraction of complex I.
