Scope note

  • A flavoprotein and iron sulfur-containing oxidoreductase complex that catalyzes the conversion of UBIQUINONE to ubiquinol. In MITOCHONDRIA the complex also couples its reaction to the transport of PROTONS across the internal mitochondrial membrane. The NADH DEHYDROGENASE component of the complex can be isolated and is listed as EC 1.6.99.3.

History note

  • 2004; for NADH DEHYDROGENASE (UBIQUINONE) use ELECTRON TRANSPORT COMPLEX I (NM) 1992-2003; for NADH DEHYDROGENASE COMPLEX 1 use NADH DEHYDROGENASE 1989-2003; for UBIQUINONE REDUCTASE use NAD(P)H DEHYDROGENASE (QUINONE) 1992-1999
