GENE NAME
Ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase
ORGANISM
Mycobacterium ulcerans (strain Agy99)
GENE NAME
qcrB
GENE ID
4554549
TDR TARGET ID
952733
PROTEIN LENGTH
561
ASSOCIATED METABOLIC PATHWAYS
Oxidative phosphorylation
FUNCTION
Cytochrome b 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.
