| PF21162 | ETF-QO, ubiquinone-binding | domain |
Electron transfer flavoprotein-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETF-QO) is a a 4Fe4S flavoprotein located in the inner mitochondrial membrane and catalyses ubiquinone (UQ) reduction. It forms a single structural domain with three functional regions (that bind FAD, the 4Fe4S cluster, and UQ) which are closely packed and share structural elements [1]. This domain includes the residues involved in UQ binding [1]. This domain is also found in FixC proteins from bacteria, which share similarities with ETF-QO [2].
