UniProt functional annotation for D0VWV4

UniProt code: D0VWV4.

Organism: Sus scrofa (Pig).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Laurasiatheria; Artiodactyla; Suina; Suidae; Sus.
 
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). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17480203}.
 
Cofactor: Name=heme; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:30413; Note=The heme is bound between the two transmembrane subunits SDHC and SDHD.;
Pathway: Carbohydrate metabolism; tricarboxylic acid cycle.
Subunit: Component of complex II composed of four subunits: the flavoprotein (FP) SDHA, iron-sulfur protein (IP) SDHB, and a cytochrome b560 composed of SDHC and SDHD. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15989954}.
Subcellular location: Mitochondrion inner membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17480203}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17480203}.
Tissue specificity: Detected in heart muscle (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17480203}.
Similarity: Belongs to the cytochrome b560 family. {ECO:0000305}.
