Gene Summary
Component of the cytochrome c oxidase, the last enzyme in the mitochondrial electron transport chain which drives oxidative phosphorylation. The respiratory chain contains 3 multisubunit complexes succinate dehydrogenase (complex II, CII), ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase (cytochrome b-c1 complex, complex III, CIII) and cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV, CIV), that cooperate to transfer electrons derived from NADH and succinate to molecular oxygen, creating an electrochemical gradient over the inner membrane that drives transmembrane transport and the ATP synthase. Cytochrome c oxidase is the component of the respiratory chain that catalyzes the reduction of oxygen to water. Electrons originating from reduced cytochrome c in the intermembrane space (IMS) are transferred via the dinuclear copper A center (CU(A)) of subunit 2 and heme A of subunit 1 to the active site in subunit 1, a binuclear center (BNC) formed by heme A3 and copper B (CU(B)). The BNC reduces molecular oxygen to 2 water molecules using 4 electrons from cytochrome c in the IMS and 4 protons from the mitochondrial matrix. (UniProt, P00408)

Gene Group (FlyBase)
MITOCHONDRIAL COMPLEX IV - CORE SUBUNITS -
Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) is the terminal complex (complex IV) of the electron transfer chain, embedded in the mitochondrial inner membrane. It catalyzes electron transfer from reduced cytochrome c to molecular oxygen in a process coupled to the transfer of protons across the inner membrane, thus contributing to the generation of the proton gradient that is used by ATP synthase to drive ATP synthesis. Eukaryotic COX is a multimeric enzyme formed by subunits of dual genetic origin. The three subunits forming the catalytic core of the enzyme (COX1, COX2 and COX3) are encoded by the mitochondrial DNA. (Adapted from PMID:17091399 and PMID:28870773.)

Model Confidence:
  • Very high (pLDDT > 90)
  • Confident (90 > pLDDT > 70)
  • Low (70 > pLDDT > 50)
  • Very low (pLDDT < 50)

AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.

                      New annotation (CG34069) in release 4.3 of the genome annotation.

                      Phylogeny of the hydei subgroup is inferred from 1,515 base pairs of mitochondrial DNA sequence of the cytochrome oxidase subunits I, II and III.

                      During oogenesis RNA from mt:srRNA, mt:lrRNA, mt:ND2, mt:CoI, mt:CoII, mt:CoIII, mt:ND4, mt:ND5 and mt:Cyt-b shows fluctuations in RNA density after stage 9 in follicle and nurse cells.There is a correlation between the mtRNA level and the cell volume and/or the nuclear DNA content suggesting a global extra-mitochondrial, transcriptional control mechanism.
