Cytochrome c oxidase (COX), the terminal component of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, catalyzes the electron transfer from reduced cytochrome c to oxygen. This component is a heteromeric complex consisting of 3 catalytic subunits encoded by mitochondrial genes and multiple structural subunits encoded by nuclear genes. The mitochondrially-encoded subunits function in electron transfer, and the nuclear-encoded subunits may function in the regulation and assembly of the complex. This nuclear gene encodes a protein similar to polypeptides 1 and 2 of subunit VIIa in the C-terminal region, and also highly similar to the mouse Sig81 protein sequence. This gene is expressed in all tissues, and upregulated in a breast cancer cell line after estrogen treatment. It is possible that this gene represents a regulatory subunit of COX and mediates the higher level of energy production in target cells by estrogen.
The stated application concentrations are suggested starting points. Titration of the COX7A2L antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
A portion of amino acids 37-65 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for the COX7A2L antibody.
Aliquot the COX7A2L antibody and store frozen at -20oC or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
