Succinate dehydrogenase complex assembly factor 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SDHAF2 gene.
[1]
Function
This gene encodes a mitochondrial protein needed for the flavination of a succinate dehydrogenase complex subunit required for activity of the complex. Mutations in this gene are associated with paraganglioma.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010].
