Protein function (UniProt)

Arginine-hydroxylase NDUFAF5, mitochondrial

Arginine hydroxylase that mediates hydroxylation of 'Arg-111' of NDUFS7 and is involved in the assembly of mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex (complex I, MT-ND1) at early stages (PubMed:18940309, PubMed:27226634). May also have methyltransferase activity (Probable)
