???displayGene.geneFunction???
Component of the ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase complex (complex III or cytochrome b-c1 complex) that is part of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. The b-c1 complex mediates electron transfer from ubiquinol to cytochrome c. Contributes to the generation of a proton gradient across the mitochondrial membrane that is then used for ATP synthesis. Subunit: The main subunits of complex b-c1 are: cytochrome b, cytochrome c1 and the Rieske protein.
