Description
Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity and ubiquinol-cytochrome-c reductase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including electron transport coupled proton transport; mitochondrial electron transport, ubiquinol to cytochrome c; and response to glucagon. Located in membrane and mitochondrion. Is integral component of mitochondrial inner membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in ovarian carcinoma and urinary bladder cancer. Orthologous to human MT-CYB (mitochondrially encoded cytochrome b).
