Identification
NameCytochrome b-c1 complex subunit 6
Synonyms
  • Complex III subunit 6
  • Complex III subunit VI
  • Cytochrome c1 non-heme 17 kDa protein
  • Mitochondrial hinge protein
  • Ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase complex 17 kDa protein
Gene NameQCR6
Enzyme ClassNot Available
Biological Properties
General FunctionCoenzyme transport and metabolism
Specific FunctionComponent of the ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase complex (complex III or cytochrome b-c1 complex), which is part of the mitochondrial respiratory chain that generates an electrochemical potential coupled to ATP synthesis. The complex couples electron transfer from ubiquinol to cytochrome c. QCR6 may mediate formation of the complex between cytochromes c and c1
