NDUFB11

protein-coding

NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase subunit B11, the group of NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase supernumerary subunits

Gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of the multisubunit NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I). Mammalian complex I is located at the mitochondrial inner membrane. This protein has NADH dehydrogenase activity and oxidoreductase activity. It transfers electrons from NADH to ubiquinone. Mutations in the human gene are associated with linear skin defects with multiple congenital anomalies 3 and mitochondrial complex I deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]

The relationship between *NDUFB11* and primary mitochondrial disease was evaluated using the ClinGen Clinical Validity Framework as of January 20, 2022. *NDUFB11* encodes an accessory subunit of complex I of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. *NDUFB11* was first reported in relation to X-linked mitochondrial disease in 2015 (PMID: 25772934). While various names have been given to the constellation of features seen in those with *NDUFB11*-related disease, pathogenic variants in this gene cause a primary mitochondrial disease. Therefore, the *NDUFB11* phenotype has been lumped into one disease entity according to the ClinGen Lumping and Splitting Framework. Evidence supporting this gene-disease relationship includes case-level data and experimental data. This curation included eight unique variants, comprising four nonsense and frameshift variants, three missense variants, and one in-frame deletion, in 13 probands across seven publications (PMIDs: 25772934, 25921236, 26741492, 27488349, 28050600, 27102574, 30423443). More evidence is available in the literature, but the maximum score for genetic evidence (12 points) has been reached. Of note, *NDUFB11* pathogenic variants were initially reported in individuals with linear skin defects, failure to thrive, developmental delay, and histiocytoid cardiomyopathy. Subsequent publications have shown expansion of the phenotypic spectrum, ranging from isolated cardiomyopathy to multisystemic disorders including cardiomyopathy, optic atrophy, myopathy, short stature, and hearing impairment. The recurrent in-frame deletion, c.276_278del (p.Phe93del) has been reported in at least five probands (PMIDs: 27488349, 27102574) with a unique presentation of sideroblastic anemia with or without some of the multisystemic features described above. Loss-of-function is implicated as the mechanism of disease. This gene-disease association is also supported by the known biochemical function, rescue in a cell culture model, and animal models (PMIDs: 27509854, 25921236, 26741492, 27488349, 27102574). More evidence is available in the literature, but the maximum score for experimental evidence (6 points) has been reached. In summary, *NDUFB11* is definitively associated with X-linked mitochondrial disease. This has been repeatedly demonstrated and has been upheld over time. No convincing evidence has emerged that contradicts the gene-disease relationship. This classification was approved by the NICHD/NINDS U24 ClinGen Mitochondrial Disease Gene Curation Expert Panel on January 20, 2022 (SOP Version 8).

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_001135998.3. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Accessory subunit of the mitochondrial membrane respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase (Complex I), that is believed not to be involved in catalysis. Complex I functions in the transfer of electrons from NADH to the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme is believed to be ubiquinone. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27626371}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Mitochondrial complex I deficiency (MT-C1D) [MIM:252010]: A disorder of the mitochondrial respiratory chain that causes a wide range of clinical manifestations from lethal neonatal disease to adult-onset neurodegenerative disorders. Phenotypes include macrocephaly with progressive leukodystrophy, non-specific encephalopathy, cardiomyopathy, myopathy, liver disease, Leigh syndrome, Leber hereditary optic neuropathy, and some forms of Parkinson disease. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26741492}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
