Mitochondrial respiratory chain complex III structural subunit gene defect – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1696588973

Complex III is when the Q-cycle contributes to the proton gradient by an asymmetric absorption/release of protons. Two electrons are removed from QH2 at the QO site and sequentially transferred to two molecules of cytochrome c, a water-soluble electron carrier located within the intermembrane space. This diagnosis is with structural subunit gene defect.
