BOLC102_CTG000490P000690.1_BOLC102_V1 — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BOLC102_CTG000490P000690.1_BOLC102_V1 in cabbage (Brassica oleracea) encodes a cytochrome b protein, a core component of the mitochondrial complex III that possesses quinol-cytochrome-c reductase activity and redox activity. The gene is associated with mitochondrial electron transport from ubiquinol to cytochrome c, electron transfer, and anther development. It localises to the mitochondrial inner membrane and complex III. The gene is associated with cytoplasmic male sterility and heterosis. Studies of related genes in other species, such as the COB family, further connect this family to mitochondrial respiratory function.
