Summary
Predicted to enable enzyme regulator activity. Predicted to be involved in mitochondrial electron transport, cytochrome c to oxygen. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be part of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex IV. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cytochrome-c oxidase deficiency disease. Orthologous to human COX6A2 (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 6A2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

RNA

  1. NR_037674.1 RNA Sequence

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (2) uses an alternate splice junction in a 5' exon, compared to variant 1, which results in a frameshift and early stop codon. The transcript is sufficiently abundant to represent as a RefSeq record; however, the predicted protein is not represented because the product is significantly truncated and the transcript is a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
