Summary: Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH, complex II), which plays an essential role in mitochondrial respiration and tricarboxylic acid metabolism, requires the assembly of eight nuclear‐encoded subunits and the insertion of various cofactors. Here, we report on the characterization of an Arabidopsis thaliana leucine‐tyrosine‐arginine (LYR) protein family member SDHAF1, (At2g39725) is a factor required for SDH activity. SDHAF1 is located in mitochondria and can fully complement the yeast SDHAF1 deletion strain. Knockdown of SDHAF1 using RNA interference resulted in a decrease in seedling hypocotyl elongation and reduced SDH activity. Proteomic analyses revealed a decreased abundance of various SDH subunits and assembly factors. Protein interaction assays revealed that SDHAF1 can interact exclusively with the Fe‐S cluster‐containing subunit SDH2 and HSCB, a cochaperone involved in Fe‐S cluster complex recruitment. Therefore, we propose that in Arabidopsis, SDHAF1 plays a role in the biogenesis of SDH2 to form the functional complex II, which is essential for mitochondrial respiration and metabolism. Significance Statement: The establishment of a functional mitochondrial complex II requires the insertion and assembly of eight individual subunits. Here, we have characterized the complex II assembly factor SDHAF1, which is able to interact with the complex II subunit SDH2 and is needed for complex II activity in Arabidopsis.
