Cytochrome c oxidase subunit 5B, mitochondrial is an

Complex IV, the last enzyme in the mitochondrial electron transport chain.[2] In humans, cytochrome c oxidase subunit 5B is encoded by the COX5B gene
.

Structure

The enzyme weighs 14 kDa and is composed of 129

Complex IV, which consists of 13 mitochondrial- and nuclear-encoded subunits.[2] The sequence of subunit Vb is well conserved and includes three conserved cysteines that coordinate the zinc ion.[5][6]
Two of these cysteines are clustered in the C-terminal section of the subunit.

The COX5B gene, located on the q arm of

base pairs in length.[2]

Function

Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) is the terminal enzyme of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. It is a multi-subunit enzyme complex that couples the transfer of electrons from cytochrome c to oxygen and contributes to a proton electrochemical gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane to drive ATP synthesis via protonmotive force. The mitochondrially-encoded subunits perform the electron transfer of proton pumping activities. The functions of the nuclear-encoded subunits are unknown but they may play a role in the regulation and assembly of the complex.[2]

Summary reaction:

4 Fe2+-cytochrome c + 8 H+in + O2 → 4 Fe3+-cytochrome c + 2 H2O + 4 H+out[9]

Clinical significance

COX5A and COX5B are involved in the regulation of cancer cell metabolism by Bcl-2.[10]

The Trans-activator of transcription protein (Tat) of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) inhibits cytochrome c oxidase (COX) activity in permeabilized mitochondria isolated from both mouse and human liver, heart, and brain samples.[11]

Interactions

COX5B has been shown to

interact with Androgen receptor.[12]
