Synonyms: | plasma membrane coenzyme Q-cytochrome c oxidoreductase complex, plasma membrane coenzyme Q-cytochrome c reductase complex, plasma membrane cytochrome bc1 complex, plasma membrane ubiquinol-cytochrome-c reductase complex, respiratory chain complex III, ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase complex, ubiquinol-cytochrome-c reductase complex |
Definition: | A part of the respiratory chain located in the plasma membrane, containing about 10 polypeptide subunits including four redox centers: cytochrome b/b6, cytochrome c1 and an 2Fe-2S cluster. Catalyzes the oxidation of ubiquinol by oxidized cytochrome c1. Examples of this component are found in bacterial species. |
