COX18 Lysates

COX18 encodes a cytochrome c oxidase (COX)-assembly protein. The S. cerevisiae Cox18 protein catalyzes the insertion of the Cox2 (MTCO2; MIM 516040) C-terminal tail into the mitochondrial inner membrane, an intermediate step in the assembly of complex IV of the mitochondrial respiratory chain (Sacconi et al., 2005 [PubMed 16212937]).[supplied by OMIM]
