Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
UQCR11 (ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase, complex III sub-unit XI) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the UQCR11 gene .[5] [6] Complex III in the mitochondrial respiratory chain .[6]
Structure [ edit ] The UQCR11 gene, located on the p arm of chromosome 19 in position 13.3, is made up of 3 exons and is 8,329 base pairs in length.[6] [7] [8] ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase complex, which is also known as Complex III and is part of the mitochondrial respiratory chain .[6] [9] [10] [11]
Function [ edit ] The UQCR11 protein may function as a binding factor for the iron-sulfur protein in Complex III , which is ubiquitous in human cells.[6]

+ Thus, the two substrates of Complex III are dihydroquinone (QH2) and ferri- (Fe3+ ) cytochrome c , whereas its 3 products are quinone (Q), ferro- (Fe2+ ) cytochrome c, and H+ . This complex belongs to the family of oxidoreductases , specifically those acting on diphenols and related substances as donor with a cytochrome as acceptor. This enzyme participates in oxidative phosphorylation . It has four cofactors : cytochrome c1 , cytochrome b-562, cytochrome b-566 and a 2-Iron ferredoxin of the Rieske type.
