**Background of UQCRC2 Recombinant Protein**
UQCRC2 (Ubiquinol-Cytochrome c Reductase Core Protein 2) is a nuclear-encoded subunit of mitochondrial Complex III (cytochrome *bc*1 complex), a critical component of the electron transport chain (ETC) responsible for oxidative phosphorylation and ATP production. This 48 kDa protein plays a structural and functional role in stabilizing Complex III and facilitating electron transfer from ubiquinol to cytochrome *c*, coupled with proton translocation across the inner mitochondrial membrane.
Mutations or dysregulation of UQCRC2 are linked to mitochondrial disorders, neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Parkinson’s), and cancer, underscoring its importance in cellular energy homeostasis. Recombinant UQCRC2 protein is engineered to study these mechanisms *in vitro*. Typically produced in heterologous expression systems (e.g., *E. coli* or mammalian cell lines), the recombinant protein retains post-translational modifications when expressed in eukaryotic systems, enhancing its functional relevance.
Researchers employ UQCRC2 recombinant proteins to investigate Complex III assembly, ETC dysfunction, and disease-associated mutations. It is also used in drug discovery to screen compounds targeting mitochondrial metabolism or to develop therapies for mitochondrial pathologies. Purification often involves affinity chromatography (e.g., His-tag systems), followed by validation via Western blot or mass spectrometry.
Overall, UQCRC2 recombinant proteins serve as indispensable tools for dissecting mitochondrial biology and advancing translational research in energy-related diseases.
