Ndufc2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to be involved in several processes, including mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I assembly; negative regulation of non-canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction; and positive regulation of ATP biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrion. Part of respiratory chain complex I. Is active in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including gut; male reproductive gland or organ; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nuclear type mitochondrial complex I deficiency. Orthologous to several human genes including NDUFC2 (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase subunit C2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Ndufc2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
