Biological function summary
COX5B acts within the larger cytochrome c oxidase complex which consists of multiple subunits that work together to promote efficient oxidative phosphorylation. This subunit contributes to the enzymatic activity that pumps protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane a critical step for ATP synthesis. The operation of COX5B is important for cellular respiration and energy production impacting metabolic functions across various cell types. It maintains cellular energy homeostasis by regulating how efficiently cells convert nutrients into energy.
Pathways
COX5B plays an important role in the oxidative phosphorylation pathway and is a part of the electron transport chain (ETC). It interacts with other ETC proteins such as COX2 and COX3 to ensure the proper function of the chain. Furthermore COX5B's involvement in oxidative phosphorylation links it to pathways like ATP synthesis where it indirectly influences essential cellular processes such as apoptosis and cellular metabolism due to its role in energy production.

General info
Function
Component of the cytochrome c oxidase, the last enzyme in the mitochondrial electron transport chain which drives oxidative phosphorylation. The respiratory chain contains 3 multisubunit complexes succinate dehydrogenase (complex II, CII), ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase (cytochrome b-c1 complex, complex III, CIII) and cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV, CIV), that cooperate to transfer electrons derived from NADH and succinate to molecular oxygen, creating an electrochemical gradient over the inner membrane that drives transmembrane transport and the ATP synthase. Cytochrome c oxidase is the component of the respiratory chain that catalyzes the reduction of oxygen to water. Electrons originating from reduced cytochrome c in the intermembrane space (IMS) are transferred via the dinuclear copper A center (CU(A)) of subunit 2 and heme A of subunit 1 to the active site in subunit 1, a binuclear center (BNC) formed by heme A3 and copper B (CU(B)). The BNC reduces molecular oxygen to 2 water molecules using 4 electrons from cytochrome c in the IMS and 4 protons from the mitochondrial matrix.
