Succinate-CoA Ligase [ADP/GDP-Forming] Subunit Alpha, Mitochondrial

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein|Enzyme

**Definition:** Succinate-CoA ligase [ADP/GDP-forming] subunit alpha, mitochondrial (346 aa, ~36 kDa) is encoded by the human SUCLG1 gene. This protein plays a role in the hydrolysis of succinyl-CoA, which leads to the synthesis of either ATP or GTP.
