Introduction
Cytochrome c oxidase subunit VB (COX5B) is the terminal enzyme of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. COX5B is a multi-subunit enzyme complex which couples the transfer of electrons from cytochrome c to molecular oxygen and contributes to a proton electrochemical gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. There are two isoforms of COX5:COX5a and COX5b. Transcription of COX5A (the aerobic isoform) is up-regulated as the rate of cellular respiration increases, when oxygen levels within the cell are high. However, when oxygen levels are low, COX5B (the hypoxic isoform) transcription increases and functions to maximize the turnover rate of the COX apoenzyme.
Description
COX5B Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 121 amino acids (32-129a.a) and having a molecular mass of 13kDa.
COX5B is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
