Rieske iron-sulfur protein

GENE NAME

Rieske iron-sulfur protein

ORGANISM

Mycobacterium ulcerans (strain Agy99)

GENE NAME

qcrA

GENE ID

4554548

PROTEIN LENGTH

394

ASSOCIATED METABOLIC PATHWAYS

Oxidative phosphorylation

FUNCTION

Iron-sulfur subunit of the cytochrome bc1 complex, an essential component of the respiratory electron transport chain required for ATP synthesis. The bc1 complex catalyzes the oxidation of menaquinol and the reduction of cytochrome c in the respiratory chain. The bc1 complex operates through a Q-cycle mechanism that couples electron transfer to generation of the proton gradient that drives ATP synthesis.
