Function

Cytochrome b-c1 complex subunit Rieske, mitochondrialComponent of the ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, a multisubunit transmembrane complex that is part of the mitochondrial electron transport chain which drives oxidative phosphorylation. The respiratory chain contains 3 multisubunit complexes succinate dehydrogenase (complex II, CII), ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase (cytochrome b-c1 complex, complex III, CIII) and cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV, CIV), that cooperate to transfer electrons derived from NADH and succinate to molecular oxygen, creating an electrochemical gradient over the inner membrane that drives transmembrane transport and the ATP synthase. The cytochrome b-c1 complex catalyzes electron transfer from ubiquinol to cytochrome c, linking this redox reaction to translocation of protons across the mitochondrial inner membrane, with protons being carried across the membrane as hydrogens on the quinol. In the process called Q cycle, 2 protons are consumed from the matrix, 4 protons are released into the intermembrane space and 2 electrons are passed to cytochrome c. The Rieske protein is a catalytic core subunit containing a [2Fe-2S] iron-sulfur cluster. It cycles between 2 conformational states during catalysis to transfer electrons from the quinol bound in the Q(0) site in cytochrome b to cytochrome c1 (By similarity). Incorporation of UQCRFS1 is the penultimate step in complex III assembly (By similarity).Cytochrome b-c1 complex subunit 9Component of the ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase (cytochrome b-c1 complex, complex III, CIII). UQCRFS1 undergoes proteolytic processing once it is incorporated in the complex III dimer. One of the fragments, called subunit 9, corresponds to its mitochondrial targeting sequence (MTS) (PubMed:8386158, PubMed:2996928). The proteolytic processing is necessary for the correct insertion of UQCRFS1 in the complex III dimer, but the persistence of UQCRFS1-derived fragments may prevent newly imported UQCRFS1 to be processed and assembled into complex III and is detrimental for the complex III structure and function (By similarity).

Activity summary

Complex III also known as cytochrome bc1 complex or ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase is an important component of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. This protein complex has a mass of approximately 500 kDa and is located in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Complex III plays a mechanical role by facilitating the transfer of electrons from ubiquinol to cytochrome c while simultaneously pumping protons across the mitochondrial membrane. This action helps in establishing the electrochemical gradient used for ATP synthesis.

Biological function summary

The molecular actions of Complex III are integral to aerobic respiration. It forms part of the larger mitochondrial respiratory chain complex working closely with Complexes I II and IV. Complex III through its electron transport and proton translocation activities helps in the production of ATP an energy currency vital for cellular processes. It also influences the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which can serve as cellular signals or cause damage under certain conditions.

Pathways

Complex III is embedded in the oxidative phosphorylation pathway as a central component. It interacts with other protein complexes like Complex I and IV which are also important for the production of ATP. By transferring electrons it plays a role in maintaining the efficiency of the electron transport chain. Even slight dysfunctions in Complex III's activities can lead to disruptions in the oxidative phosphorylation pathway affecting overall cellular energy metabolism.

Associated diseases and disorders

Deficiencies or mutations in Complex III correlate with mitochondrial diseases and neurodegenerative disorders. For example Complex III dysfunction has been connected with diseases such as mitochondrial myopathy and Parkinson's disease. In such conditions the protein's activity directly impacts ATP production and ROS levels linking it to disruptions in cellular homeostasis. Mutations in its associated proteins like cytochrome c can exacerbate these disorders highlighting Complex III's significance in maintaining physiological function.
