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.|||Heme 1 (or BL or b562) is low-potential and absorbs at about 562 nm, and heme 2 (or BH or b566) is high-potential and absorbs at about 566 nm.|||Membrane|||Mitochondrion inner membrane|||The main subunits of complex b-c1 are: cytochrome b, cytochrome c1 and the Rieske protein.|||The protein contains an even number of transmembrane helices, fewer than predicted by bioinformatics tools. http://togogenome.org/gene/126793:PlvioMp2 ^@ http://purl.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q4G4P0 ^@ Function|||Similarity|||Subcellular Location Annotation ^@ Belongs to the heme-copper respiratory oxidase family.|||Component of the cytochrome c oxidase, the last enzyme in 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. Cytochrome c oxidase is the component of the respiratory chain that catalyzes the reduction of oxygen to water. Electrons originating from reduced cytochrome c in the intermembrane space (IMS) are transferred via the dinuclear copper A center (CU(A)) of subunit 2 and heme A of subunit 1 to the active site in subunit 1, a binuclear center (BNC) formed by heme A3 and copper B (CU(B)). The BNC reduces molecular oxygen to 2 water molecules using 4 electrons from cytochrome c in the IMS and 4 protons from the mitochondrial matrix.|||Membrane|||Mitochondrion inner membrane http://togogenome.org/gene/126793:PlvioMp1 ^@ http://purl.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q4G4P1 ^@ Function|||Similarity|||Subcellular Location Annotation ^@ Belongs to the cytochrome c oxidase subunit 3 family.|||Component of the cytochrome c oxidase, the last enzyme in the mitochondrial electron transport chain which drives oxidative phosphorylation.
