Defects of cytochrome c oxidase (COX) show remarkable clinical, biochemical, and genetic heterogeneity. Clinically, there are two main groups of disorders, one dominated by muscle involvement, the other by brain dysfunction. Biochemically, the enzyme defect may be confined to one or a few tissues (reflecting the existence of tissue-specific isozymes) or affect all tissues. Immunologically reactive enzyme protein is decreased in some forms of COX deficiency but not in others. Because COX is encoded both by nuclear and by mitochondrial genes, COX deficiencies may be due to mutations of either genome and may offer useful models to study the communication between nuclei and mitochondria. We have isolated full-length cDNA clones encoding human COX subunits IV, Vb, and VIII and a partial-length clone for subunit Va. These clones are being used as probes to analyze the DNA and RNA of patients with COX deficiency.

D008928 Mitochondria Semiautonomous, self-reproducing organelles that occur in the cytoplasm of all cells of most, but not all, eukaryotes. Each mitochondrion is surrounded by a double limiting membrane. The inner membrane is highly invaginated, and its projections are called cristae. Mitochondria are the sites of the reactions of oxidative phosphorylation, which result in the formation of ATP. They contain distinctive RIBOSOMES, transfer RNAs (RNA, TRANSFER); AMINO ACYL T RNA SYNTHETASES; and elongation and termination factors. Mitochondria depend upon genes within the nucleus of the cells in which they reside for many essential messenger RNAs (RNA, MESSENGER). Mitochondria are believed to have arisen from aerobic bacteria that established a symbiotic relationship with primitive protoeukaryotes.

D003576 Electron Transport Complex IV A multisubunit enzyme complex containing CYTOCHROME A GROUP; CYTOCHROME A3; two copper atoms; and 13 different protein subunits. It is the terminal oxidase complex of the RESPIRATORY CHAIN and collects electrons that are transferred from the reduced CYTOCHROME C GROUP and donates them to molecular OXYGEN, which is then reduced to water. The redox reaction is simultaneously coupled to the transport of PROTONS across the inner mitochondrial membrane.

D030401 Cytochrome-c Oxidase Deficiency A disease that results from a congenital defect in ELECTRON TRANSPORT COMPLEX IV. Defects in ELECTRON TRANSPORT COMPLEX IV can be caused by mutations in the SURF1, SCO2, COX10, or SCO1 genes. ELECTRON TRANSPORT COMPLEX IV deficiency caused by mutation in SURF1 manifests itself as LEIGH DISEASE; that caused by mutation in SCO2 as fatal infantile cardioencephalomyopathy; that caused by mutation in COX10 as tubulopathy and leukodystrophy; and that caused by mutation in SCO1 as early-onset hepatic failure and neurologic disorder.
