Preparation and Storage

Background: COX4-I1

Cytochrome c oxidase subunit 4 isoform 1 (COX-4I1) is a 21‑22 kDa member of the cytochrome c oxidase IV family of proteins. It is a component of COX, an inner mitochondrial membrane multimeric dimer that catalyzes the transfer of electrons from cytochrome c to dioxygen. COX-4I1 is the largest of 10 distinct nuclear DNA‑encoded subunits that form each COX monomer. Human COX4-I1 is 169 amino acids (aa) in length and possesses a mitochondrial transit peptide between aa 1‑22, an ATP binding site (aa 42; 95‑100), and multiple subunit interface sequences. The ATP binding site is suggested to make COX-4I1 a regulatory subunit within the COX complex. There are two potential splice variants for COX-4I1 that show a three aa substitution for aa 81‑169, and a single Gly substitution for aa 125‑169. COX‑4I2, the product of a different gene, shares only 50% aa identity with COX-4I1. Over amino acid 23‑169, human COX4‑1 shares 78% aa identity with mouse COX‑4I1.
