It is a multi-subunit enzyme complex that couples the transfer of electrons from cytochrome c to molecular oxygen and contributes to a proton electrochemical gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. The complex consists of 13 mitochondrial- and nuclear-encoded subunits. The mitochondrially-encoded subunits perform the electron transfer and 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. This gene encodes the nuclear-encoded subunit IV isoform 1 of the human mitochondrial respiratory chain enzyme. It is located at the 3' of the NOC4 (neighbor of COX4) gene in a head-to-head orientation, and shares a promoter with it. Pseudogenes related to this gene are located on chromosomesFunction:Function:This protein is one of the nuclear-coded polypeptide chains of cytochrome c oxidase, the terminal oxidase in mitochondrial electron transport.,similarity:Belongs to the cytochrome c oxidase IV family.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitous.,Cellular Localization:Mitochondrion inner membrane ; Single-pass membrane protein .Tissue Expression:Ubiquitous.Research Areas:>>Oxidative phosphorylation ; >>Metabolic pathways ; >>Cardiac muscle contraction ; >>Thermogenesis ; >>Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease ; >>Alzheimer disease ; >>Parkinson disease ; >>Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ; >>Huntington disease ; >>Prion disease ; >>Pathways of neurodegeneration - multiple diseases ; >>Chemical carcinogenesis - reactive oxygen species ; >>Diabetic cardiomyopathy
