Mitochondrial Oxidative Phosphorylation Complex I (Complex I)

Target
Complex I
Molecular classification
Enzyme, Oxidoreductase, Mitochondrial respiratory chain complex
01

Overview

Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation complex I is the first and largest enzyme complex of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, located in the inner mitochondrial membrane. It catalyzes the transfer of electrons from NADH to ubiquinone (coenzyme Q10), coupled to proton translocation across the membrane, contributing to ATP synthesis. Deficiency or dysfunction can cause severe multisystem disorders, and altered activity has been implicated in cancer cell survival.
