Definition: A flavoprotein and iron sulfur-containing oxidoreductase that catalyzes the oxidation of NADH to NAD. In eukaryotes the enzyme can be found as a component of mitochondrial electron transport complex I. Under experimental conditions the enzyme can use CYTOCHROME C GROUP as the reducing cofactor. The enzyme was formerly listed as EC 1.6.2.1.
do not confuse with NADPH DEHYDROGENASE; do not confuse X ref NADH CYTOCHROME C REDUCTASE with NADPH CYTOCHROME C REDUCTASE
Other names NADH Cytochrome c Reductase; Dehydrogenase, NADH; NADH Cytochrome c Oxidoreductase; NADH (Acceptor) Oxidoreductase; Diaphorase (NADH Dehydrogenase)
