Protein attributes

Sequence length	213 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Inferred from homology.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Component of the cytochrome bc complex which donates electrons to the photosynthetic reaction center By similarity.
Cofactor	Binds 2 heme groups. One heme group is bound covalently by a single cysteine link, the other one non-covalently By similarity.
Subunit structure	The subunits of the cytochrome bc complex are a Rieske Fe-S protein (petC), cytochrome b6 (petB), subunit IV (petD), and a diheme cytochrome c (petX) By similarity.
Subcellular location	Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein By similarity.
Miscellaneous	Heme 1 (or BH or b566) is high-potential and absorbs at about 566 nm, and heme 2 (or BL or b562) is low-potential and absorbs at about 562 nm By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the cytochrome b family. PetB subfamily.
