Background
Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) catalyzes the transfer of electrons from cytochrome c to molecular oxygen, which helps to maintain the proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane that is necessary for aerobic ATP production. Human COX is a multimeric protein complex that requires several assembly factors; this gene encodes one of the COX assembly factors. The encoded protein is a metallochaperone that is involved in the biogenesis of cytochrome c oxidase subunit II. Mutations in this gene are associated with fatal infantile encephalocardiomyopathy and myopia 6. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014],
Function
disease:Defects in SCO2 are the cause of fatal infantile cardioencephalomyopathy with cytochrome c oxidase deficiency (FIC) [MIM:604377, 220110]. This disease is characterized by hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and gliosis. Heart and skeletal muscle show reductions in cytochrome c oxidase (COX) activity, whereas liver and fibroblasts show mild COX deficiencies.,function:Acts as a copper chaperone, transporting copper to the Cu(A) site on the cytochrome c oxidase subunit II (COX2).,similarity:Belongs to the SCO1/2 family.,similarity:Contains 1 thioredoxin domain.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitous.,
