In this report, the authors used in situ hybridization and somatic cell hybrid mapping to localize the human gene for the Rieske iron-sulfur protein. The assignment of the gene for the Rieske iron-sulfur protein to human chromosomes 22q13 and 19q12-q13.1 confirms that it is encoded by the nuclear genome. The localization of four subunits of complex III to different human chromosomes - 8, 16, and 22/19 - precludes the existence of a gene cluster for this complex within the human genome. 9 refs., 2 figs., 1 tab.
