Abstract
Mitochondrial cytochrome C oxidase (mt-COX, E .C .1.9.3.1) is the respiratory chain complex Ⅳ in mitochondria, which is the rate limiting enzyme at the end of respiratory chain, and participates in the important physiological processes such as energy supply, cell apoptosis, metabolism, active oxygen production, etc. Since 95% of oxygen in mammals is utilized by catalytic treatment of mt-cox, mt-cox plays an important role in energy production and regulation and becomes a research hotspot. The research shows that the abnormality of cytochrome C oxidase is related to many diseases, especially mt-coxI, which is the core group of cytochrome C oxidase. This review summarized the research progress and related diseases of mitochondrial cytochrome C oxidase I.
Key words:
Mitochondrial cytochrome C oxidase I; Respiratory chain; Mitochondrial diseases
