UQCRBP1
Description
The UQCRBP1 (ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase binding protein pseudogene 1) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome X.
UQCRBP1 (Ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase binding protein 1) is a human gene that encodes a protein essential for the assembly and function of the respiratory chain complex III, a vital component of cellular respiration. This gene is located on chromosome 11 and its encoded protein acts as a chaperone for the Rieske iron-sulfur protein (RISP), a crucial component of complex III, aiding in its proper folding and stability. UQCRBP1 also interacts with the cytochrome b subunit of complex III, suggesting a possible role in regulating the activity of this respiratory chain complex.
