Complex III can be resolved into an electron transfer complex and an ion transfer complex. The electron transfer complex contains exclusively the oxidation-reduction proteins of complex III, and the ion transfer complex the capability for augmenting cation-induced fluorescence of 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid. This finding has important implications for the molecular mechanism of mitochondrial energy coupling.
复合物III可分解为电子传递复合物和离子传递复合物。电子传递复合物仅包含复合物III的氧化还原蛋白,而离子传递复合物具有增强阳离子诱导的8-苯胺基-1-萘磺酸荧光的能力。这一发现对线粒体能量偶联的分子机制具有重要意义。
