Welcome! If you are familiar with the subject of this article, you can contribute to this open access knowledge base by deleting incorrect information, restructuring or completely rewriting any text.

Ideally this entry shall become one comprehensive and continuous article. Bulleted lists, for instance, were only used because it is impossible to automatically integrate independent facts into a continuous text.

Much of the current information on this page has been automatically compiled from Pubmed.

This precompiled information serves as a substrate and matrix to embed your contributions, but it is by no means the final word - Homo sapiens can do much better!

High impact information on QCR10

  • We demonstrate here that Bcs1p is directly required for the assembly of the Rieske FeS and Qcr10p proteins into the cytochrome bc(1) complex [1].
  • However, deletion of QCR10 synergistically contributes to the temperature-dependent phenotype resulting from deletion of QCR6, the gene for subunit 6 of the cytochrome bc1 complex [2].
  • In addition, ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase activity was reduced 40% in mitochondrial membranes from the QCR10 deletion strain, and the Rieske iron-sulfur protein was lost when the cytochrome bc1 complex lacking the 8.5-kDa protein was purified [2].
  • QCR10 includes a 231-base pair open reading frame capable of encoding a protein of 77 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 8492 Da [2].
