Cytochrome c1 is a component of the ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, also known as the cytochrome b-c1 complex, which is part of the mitochondrial electron transport chain driving oxidative phosphorylation. This multisubunit complex, along with succinate dehydrogenase (complex II) and cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV), transfers electrons from NADH and succinate to molecular oxygen, creating an electrochemical gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane that powers ATP synthase. The cytochrome b-c1 complex catalyzes electron transfer from ubiquinol to cytochrome c, coupling this reaction with proton translocation. In the Q cycle, protons are consumed and released, and electrons are passed to cytochrome c. Cytochrome c1 transfers electrons from the Rieske protein’s [2Fe-2S] cluster to cytochrome c.

Reconstitution | We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20℃/-80℃. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference. |
Shelf Life | The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. |
Notes | Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week. |
