General annotation (Comments)

Function

Component of the ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase complex (complex III or cytochrome b-c1 complex), which is a respiratory chain that generates an electrochemical potential coupled to ATP synthesis By similarity.

Cofactor

Binds 2 heme groups non-covalently By similarity.

Subunit structure

The bc1 complex contains 11 subunits: 3 respiratory subunits (cytochrome b, cytochrome c1 and Rieske/UQCRFS1), 2 core proteins (UQCRC1/QCR1 and UQCRC2/QCR2) and 6 low-molecular weight proteins (UQCRH/QCR6, UQCRB/QCR7, UQCRQ/QCR8, UQCR10/QCR9, UQCR11/QCR10 and a cleavage product of Rieske/UQCRFS1) By similarity.

Subcellular location

Mitochondrion inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein By similarity.

Miscellaneous

Heme 1 (or BL or b562) is low-potential and absorbs at about 562 nm, and heme 2 (or BH or b566) is high-potential and absorbs at about 566 nm By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the cytochrome b family.
