Biological function summary
Cytochrome C Oxidase subunit VIc is part of the larger cytochrome c oxidase complex facilitating efficient electron transfer from cytochrome c to oxygen therefore promoting the process of oxidative phosphorylation. This activity is critical for sustaining the mitochondrial membrane potential and ATP production. COX6C's integration within the complex is necessary for its structural integrity and optimal performance. This subunit impacts mitochondrial functionality playing a pivotal role in cellular energy metabolism.
Pathways
Cytochrome C Oxidase subunit VIc contributes to the oxidative phosphorylation pathway and impacts the electron transport chain's efficiency. Its function within this pathway is interconnected with cytochrome c and other cytochrome oxidase complexes. During this process ATP synthase takes advantage of the proton gradient established by the electron flow managed by complex IV. COX6C's role within these pathways ensures effective energy conversion maintaining cellular respiration and energy output in aerobically respiring cells.

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.
