NDH shuttles electrons from NAD(P)H:plastoquinone, via FMN and iron-sulfur (Fe-S) centers, to quinones in the photosynthetic chain and possibly in a chloroplast respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme in this species is believed to be plastoquinone. Couples the redox reaction to proton translocation, and thus conserves the redox energy in a proton gradient. a plastoquinone + (n+1) H(+)(in) + NADH = a plastoquinol + n H(+)(out) + NAD(+) a plastoquinone + (n+1) H(+)(in) + NADPH = a plastoquinol + n H(+)(out) + NADP(+) NDH is composed of at least 16 different subunits, 5 of which are encoded in the nucleus. The initiatior methionine is created by RNA editing. A second copy of the second exon exists; it is not known if it is transcribed or not. Belongs to the complex I subunit 2 family.
