Complex I, the initial electron acceptor in aerobic respiratory chains. Electron transfer from NADH to Q via eight to nine ISCs leads to pumping of protons in the membrane domain of complex I. (inset) Q and N2 sites are located about 20 Å above the membrane plane; Q has been modeled in computationally (see the Computational Methods section).
