Query author contributions in Reactome

Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at ORCID and Reactome.

If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

commentFUNCTION 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.SUBUNIT Complex I is composed of 45 different subunits.SUBCELLULAR LOCATION The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.SIMILARITY Belongs to the complex I NDUFA2 subunit family.
descriptionrecommendedName: NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] 1 alpha subcomplex subunit 2 alternativeName: Complex I-B8 shortName: CI-B8 alternativeName: NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase B8 subunit
