Uniprot Id

Q99643

Target Species

Human

Target Name

SDHC

Target Full Name

Succinate dehydrogenase cytochrome b560 subunit, mitochondrial

Target Function

Membrane-anchoring subunit of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) that is involved in complex II of the mitochondrial electron transport chain and is responsible for transferring electrons from succinate to ubiquinone (coenzyme Q).

Target Involvement

Paragangliomas 3 (PGL3); Paraganglioma and gastric stromal sarcoma (PGGSS)

Target Subcellular Location

Mitochondrion inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Target Protein Families

Cytochrome b560 family

Target Synonyms

SDHC; CYB560; SDH3; Succinate dehydrogenase cytochrome b560 subunit, mitochondrial; Integral membrane protein CII-3; QPs-1; QPs1; Succinate dehydrogenase complex subunit C; Succinate-ubiquinone oxidoreductase cytochrome B large subunit; CYBL

Target Background

This gene encodes one of four nuclear-encoded subunits that comprise succinate dehydrogenase, also known as mitochondrial complex II, a key enzyme complex of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and aerobic respiratory chains of mitochondria. The encoded protein is one of two integral membrane proteins that anchor other subunits of the complex, which form the catalytic core, to the inner mitochondrial membrane. There are several related pseudogenes for this gene on different chromosomes. Mutations in this gene have been associated with paragangliomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.
