NUO1 — Verticillium dahliae

Summary

VDAG_04933 (NUO1, VdNUO1) in Verticillium dahliae encodes a 21 kDa subunit of NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (Complex I of the respiratory chain), with ubiquinone reductase and redox activities. The protein localises to the mitochondrial inner membrane and respiratory chain complex I. This gene is associated with oxidative phosphorylation, the electron transport chain, and several cellular processes including hyphal growth, morphogenesis, melanin anabolism, detoxification, homeostasis, and localisation. Related genes in other species link the family to the same enzyme class (EC 7.1.1.2).
