-  Comments and Description Text from UniProtKB
  ID: NDUA4_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] 1 alpha subcomplex subunit 4; AltName: Full=Complex I-MLRQ; Short=CI-MLRQ; AltName: Full=NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase MLRQ subunit;
FUNCTION: Accessory subunit of the mitochondrial membrane respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase (Complex I), that is believed to be not 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.
SUBUNIT: Mammalian complex I is composed of 45 different subunits.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Mitochondrion inner membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Matrix side.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the complex I NDUFA4 subunit family.

-  Primer design for this transcript
 

Primer3Plus can design qPCR Primers that straddle exon-exon-junctions, which amplify only cDNA, not genomic DNA.
Click here to load the transcript sequence and exon structure into Primer3Plus

Exonprimer can design one pair of Sanger sequencing primers around every exon, located in non-genic sequence.

The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
