mt-Nd3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone) activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to glucocorticoid stimulus; mitochondrial electron transport, NADH to ubiquinone; and response to oxidative stress. Located in mitochondrion. Part of respiratory chain complex I. Is active in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver and biliary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Leber hereditary optic neuropathy; Leigh disease; and Parkinson's disease. Orthologous to human MT-ND3 (mitochondrially encoded NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase core subunit 3). [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 Mt-Nd3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
