| Complex III is part of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. It plays a key role in oxidative phosphorylation by transferring electrons from ubiquinol (coenzyme Q) to cytochrome c. • The complex is made up of multiple subunits. In humans, some of the key proteins include: -UQCRC1 (ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase core protein I) -UQCRC2 (core protein II) -UQCRFS1 (the Rieske iron-sulfur protein) -UQCRB (cytochrome b) Complex III is a significant source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) when electron transport is inefficient. Increased ROS can promote DNA damage and genomic instability, factors known to drive cancer progression. Expression levels of Complex III subunits, particularly UQCRFS1 and UQCRC1, have been evaluated as biomarkers. High expression may suggest a more aggressive tumor phenotype, thus linking mitochondrial respiratory chain activity with clinical outcomes. |
