Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 27247
Gene name NFU1 iron-sulfur cluster scaffold
Gene symbol NFU1
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CGI-33HIRIPHIRIP5MMDFSMMDS1NIFUCNfuNifUSPG93
Chromosome 2
Chromosome location 2p13.3
Summary This gene encodes a protein that is localized to mitochondria and plays a critical role in iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis. The encoded protein assembles and transfers 4Fe-4S clusters to target apoproteins including succinate dehydrogenase and lipoic acid
