Enables NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone) activity. Involved in mitochondrial electron transport, NADH to ubiquinone and mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I assembly. Located in mitochondrion. Part of respiratory chain complex I. Is active in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in brain; early conceptus; and secondary oocyte. Used to study Leber hereditary optic neuropathy and lactic acidosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Leber hereditary optic neuropathy; Leigh disease; and spinal muscular atrophy with lower extremity predominant 2B. Orthologous to human MT-ND6 (mitochondrially encoded NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase core subunit 6).
