这个基因编码呼吸链复合物ii的一个成员，负责琥珀酸的氧化。编码蛋白是将复合物锚定在线粒体内膜基质侧的两个完整膜蛋白之一。该基因突变与肿瘤的形成有关，包括遗传性副神经节瘤。疾病的传播几乎完全通过父系等位基因发生，这表明该位点可能是母系印记。这个基因在1号、2号、3号、7号和18号染色体上有假基因。选择性剪接导致多个转录变体。[由RefSeq提供，2013年2月]
This gene encodes a member of complex II of the respiratory chain, which is responsible for the oxidation of succinate. The encoded protein is one of two integral membrane proteins anchoring the complex to the matrix side of the mitochondrial inner membrane. Mutations in this gene are associated with the formation of tumors, including hereditary paraganglioma. Transmission of disease occurs almost exclusively through the paternal allele, suggesting that this locus may be maternally imprinted. There are pseudogenes for this gene on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 7, and 18. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2013]
