Supplementary information

COX20 also known as FAM36A is a mitochondrial protein with a mass of around 11 kDa. COX20 helps the assembly and stability of cytochrome c oxidase (COX) the terminal enzyme of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Researchers found COX20 widely expressed in tissues with high metabolic rates including the heart skeletal muscle and brain. It functions by acting as a chaperone specifically aiding the insertion of COX2 into the mitochondrial inner membrane.
Biological function summary

COX20 facilitates complex IV's assembly by ensuring proper incorporation of subunits into the holoenzyme. This process is important for efficient mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation which produces ATP. COX20 is part of a mitochondrial protein complex that incorporates the COX2 subunit into the cytochrome c oxidase complex. Disturbances in COX20's function can lead to defects in energy production highlighting its role in cellular metabolism.

Pathways

Scientists have positioned COX20 in the electron transport chain where it assists cytochrome c oxidase integration an important step in cellular respiration. COX20 interacts with other proteins like COX15 and SURF1 which are also essential components in the electron transport pathway coordinating the assembly of the cytochrome oxidase complex. Efficient pathway function ensures energy metabolism in cells affecting nutrient utilization and energy balance.

Abnormalities in COX20 have associations with mitochondrial disorders particularly COX deficiency which can lead to various neuromuscular diseases. Research shows that defective COX20 impacts neurological and muscular functions revealing links to conditions such as Leigh syndrome and encephalomyopathy. Alongside proteins like SCO1 impaired COX20 can alter copper transportation and incorporation within cytochrome c oxidase pointing to its role in disease processes.

Target data

Essential for the assembly of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex IV (CIV), also known as cytochrome c oxidase (PubMed : 23125284). Acts as a chaperone in the early steps of cytochrome c oxidase subunit II (MT-CO2/COX2) maturation, stabilizing the newly synthesized protein and presenting it to metallochaperones SCO1/2 which in turn facilitates the incorporation of the mature MT-CO2/COX2 into the assembling CIV holoenzyme (PubMed : 24403053).
