Relevance 

SCO2 (Synthesis of cytochrome c oxidase 2) was initially identified in yeast as one of two cytochrome c oxidase (COX) assembly proteins that enable the assembly of cytochrome c holoenzyme, a complex that catalyzes the transfer of reducing equivalents from cytochrome c to molecular oxygen and pumps protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane. Like their yeast homologs, the function of both SCO2 and SCO1 are dependent on copper ion binding. Recent studies suggest that SCO2 expression is regulated by p53, so that a decrease in p53 expression, such as in numerous tumors and cells lines, results in a drop in SCO2 expression which leads to a shift from normal aerobic respiration towards the production of glycolytic ATP. Defects in SCO2 are the cause of fatal infantile cardioencephalomyopathy with cytochrome c oxidase deficiency, a disease characterized by hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and gliosis.
