Abstract excerpt
NDUFA1 is one of the 36 nuclear genes encoding subunits of the mitochondrial complex I involved in the respiratory chain. The human NDUFA1 has been cloned, completely sequenced and mapped to Xq24. In the present study, we searched for sequence variations in NDUFA1 as causative defects in complex...
