Rcf1 Modulates Cytochrome c Oxidase Activity Especially Under Energy-Demanding Conditions [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 The mitochondrial respiratory chain is assembled into supercomplexes. Previously, two respiratory supercomplex-associated proteins, Rcf1 and Rcf2, were identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which were initially suggested to mediate supercomplex ...

Copper-Induced Enhancement of Glioblastoma Tumorigenicity via Cytochrome C Oxidase [PDF]
AntioxidantsCopper is an essential trace element, yet chronic copper exposure can lead to toxicity in humans, and high levels of copper have been found in the blood or tumors of patients with various forms of cancer and may affect cancer severity and response to ...

Stability of Bovine Cytochrome c Oxidase as Studied After Exposure to High Hydrostatic Pressure [PDF]
Acta Medica, 2004 Structural and functional stability of bovine cytochrome c oxidase as a function of exposure to high hydrostatic pressure is reported. The pressure affects the stability of monomeric and dimeric enzyme quite differently.

Multiple Mechanisms Regulate Eukaryotic Cytochrome C Oxidase
Cells, 2021 Cytochrome c oxidase (COX), the rate-limiting enzyme of mitochondrial respiration, is regulated by various mechanisms. Its regulation by ATP (adenosine triphosphate) appears of particular importance, since it evolved early during evolution and is still ...

Cytochrome c Oxidase Deficiency [PDF]
Pediatric Research, 1990 Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) is a complex enzyme composed of 13 subunits, three of which are encoded by the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The other 10 subunits are encoded by the nuclear DNA, synthesized in the cytoplasm, and transported into the mitochondria.

Cytochrome c oxidase deficiency
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2021 Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) deficiency is characterized by a high degree of genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity, partly reflecting the extreme structural complexity, multiple post-translational modification, variable, tissue-specific composition, and the high number of and intricate connections among the assembly factors of this enzyme.

Activity of respiratory chain cytochrome complexes and cytochromes content in the rat kidney mitochondria under different nutrients content in a diet [PDF]
The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2023 An important role in ensuring the functioning of the respiratory chain belongs to the cytochrome part, which includes complexes III (ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase) and IV (cytochrome c oxidase). The key components of these enzymatic complexes are
