Defects in mitochondrial respiratory chain complex IV (CIV) frequently cause encephalocardiomyopathies. Human CIV assembly involves 14 subunits of dual genetic origin and multiple nucleus‐encoded ancillary factors. Biogenesis of the mitochondrion‐encoded copper/heme‐containing COX1 subunit initiates the CIV assembly process. Here, we show that the intermembrane space twin CX9C protein CMC1 forms an early CIV assembly intermediate with COX1 and two assembly factors, the cardiomyopathy proteins COA3 and COX14. A TALEN‐mediated CMC1 knockout HEK293T cell line displayed normal COX1 synthesis but decreased CIV activity owing to the instability of newly synthetized COX1. We demonstrate that CMC1 stabilizes a COX1‐COA3‐COX14 complex before the incorporation of COX4 and COX5a subunits. Additionally, we show that CMC1 acts independently of CIV assembly factors relevant to COX1 metallation (COX10, COX11, and SURF1) or late stability (MITRAC7). Furthermore, whereas human COX14 and COA3 have been proposed to affect COX1 mRNA translation, our data indicate that CMC1 regulates turnover of newly synthesized COX1 prior to and during COX1 maturation, without affecting the rate of COX1 synthesis. 相似文献

Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) or complex IV of the mitochondrial respiratory chain plays a fundamental role in energy production of aerobic cells. In humans, COX deficiency is the most frequent cause of mitochondrial encephalomyopathies. Human COX is composed of 13 subunits of dual genetic origin, whose assembly requires an increasing number of nuclear-encoded accessory proteins known as assembly factors. Here, we have identified and characterized human CCDC56, an 11.7-kDa mitochondrial transmembrane protein, as a new factor essential for COX biogenesis. CCDC56 shares sequence similarity with the yeast COX assembly factor Coa3 and was termed hCOA3. hCOA3-silenced cells display a severe COX functional alteration owing to a decreased stability of newly synthesized COX1 and an impairment in the holoenzyme assembly process. We show that hCOA3 physically interacts with both the mitochondrial translation machinery and COX structural subunits. We conclude that hCOA3 stabilizes COX1 co-translationally and promotes its assembly with COX partner subunits. Finally, our results identify hCOA3 as a new candidate when screening for genes responsible for mitochondrial diseases associated with COX deficiency. 相似文献

Subunit Vb of mammalian cytochrome c oxidase (COX; EC 1.9.3.1) is encoded by a nuclear gene and assembled with the other 12 COX subunits encoded in both mitochondrial and nuclear DNA. We have cloned the gene for human COX subunit Vb (COX5B) and determined the exon-intron structure by both hybridization analysis and DNA sequencing. The gene contains five exons and four introns; the four coding exons span a region of approximately 2.4 kb. The 5' end of the COX5B gene is GC-rich and contains many HpaII sites. Genomic Southern blot analysis of human DNA probed with the human COX Vb cDNA identified eight restriction fragments containing COX Vb-related sequences that were mapped to different chromosomes with panels of human x Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids. Because only one of these fragments hybridized with a 210-bp probe from intron 4, we conclude that there is a single expressed gene for COX subunit Vb in the human genome. We have mapped this gene to chromosome 2, region cen-q13. 相似文献

In the vast majority of eukaryotic organisms, the mitochondrial cox2 gene encodes subunit II of cytochrome c oxidase (COX2). However, in some lineages including legumes and chlorophycean algae, the cox2 gene migrated to the nucleus. Furthermore, in chlorophycean algae, this gene was split in two different units. Thereby the COX2 subunit is encoded by two independent nuclear genes, cox2a and cox2b, and mitochondria have to import the cytosol-synthesized COX2A and COX2B subunits and assemble them into the cytochrome c oxidase complex. In the chlorophycean algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Polytomella sp., the COX2A precursor exhibits a long (130-140 residues), cleavable mitochondrial targeting sequence (MTS). In contrast, COX2B lacks an MTS, suggesting that mitochondria use different mechanisms to import each subunit. Here, we explored the in vitro import processes of both, the Polytomella sp. COX2A precursor and the COX2B protein. We used isolated, import-competent mitochondria from this colorless alga. Our results suggest that COX2B is imported directly into the intermembrane space, while COX2A seems to follow an energy-dependent import pathway, through which it finally integrates into the inner mitochondrial membrane. In addition, the MTS of the COX2A precursor is eliminated. This is the first time that the in vitro import of split COX2 subunits into mitochondria has been achieved. 相似文献

Abstract : Controversy exists as to the clinical importance, cause, and disease specificity of the cytochrome oxidase (CO) activity reduction observed in some patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although it is assumed that the enzyme is present in normal amount in AD, no direct measurements of specific CO protein subunits have been conducted. We measured protein levels of CO subunits encoded by mitochondrial (COX I, COX II) and nuclear (COX IV, COX VIc) DNA in autopsied brain of patients with AD whom we previously reported had decreased cerebral cortical CO activity. To assess disease specificity, groups of patients with spinocerebellar ataxia type I and Friedreich's ataxia were also included. As compared with the controls, mean protein concentrations of all four CO subunits were significantly decreased (-19 to -47%) in temporal and parietal cortices in the AD group but were not significantly reduced (-12 to -17%) in occipital cortex. The magnitude of the reduction in protein levels of the CO subunits encoded by mitochondrial DNA (-42 to -47%) generally exceeded that encoded by nuclear DNA (-19 to -43%). In the spinocerebellar ataxia disorders, COX I and COX II levels were significantly decreased in cerebellar cortex (-22 to -32%) but were normal or close to normal in cerebral cortex, an area relatively unaffected by neurodegeneration. We conclude that protein levels of mitochondrial- and nuclear-encoded CO subunits are moderately reduced in degenerating but not in relatively spared brain areas in AD and that the decrease is not specific to this disorder. The simplest explanation for our findings is that CO is decreased in human brain disorders as a secondary event in brain areas having reduced neuronal activity or neuronal/synaptic elements consequent to the primary neurodegenerative process. 相似文献

Molecular evolution of cytochrome c oxidase: rate variation among subunit VIa isoforms 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2

Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) consists of 13 subunits, 3 encoded in the
mitochondrial genome and 10 in the nucleus. Little is known of the role of
the nuclear-encoded subunits, some of which exhibit tissue-specific
isoforms. Subunit VIa is unique in having tissue-specific isoforms in all
mammalian species examined. We examined relative evolutionary rates for the
COX6A heart (H) and liver (L) isoform genes along the length of the
molecule, specifically in relation to the tissue-specific function(s) of
the two isoforms. Nonsynonymous (amino acid replacement) substitutions in
the COX6AH gene occurred more frequently than in the ubiquitously expressed
COX6AL gene. Maximum-parsimony analysis and sequence divergences from
reconstructed ancestral sequences revealed that after the ancestral COX6A
gene duplicated to yield the genes for the H and L isoforms, the sequences
encoding the mitochondrial matrix region of the COX VIa protein experienced
an elevated rate of nonsynonymous substitutions relative to synonymous
substitutions. This is expected for relaxed selective constraints after
gene duplication followed by purifying selection to preserve the
replacements with tissue-specific functions.

Mitochondrial intermediate peptidase (MIP) is a component of the mitochondrial protein import machinery required for maturation of nuclear-encoded precursor proteins targeted to the mitochondrial matrix or inner membrane. We previously characterized this enzyme in rat (RMIP) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (YMIP) and showed that MIP activity is essential for mitochondrial function in yeast. We have now defined the structure of a new MIP homologue (SMIP) from the basidiomycete fungus Schizophyllum commune. SMIP includes 4 exons of 523, 486, 660, and 629 bp separated by 3 short introns. The predicted SMIP, YMIP, and RMIP sequences share 31-37% identity and 54-57% similarity over 700 amino acids. When SMIP and RMIP were expressed in a yeast mip1Δ mutant, they were both able to rescue the respiratory-deficient phenotype caused by genetic inactivation of YMIP, indicating that the function of this enzyme is conserved in eukaryotes. Moreover, the MIP sequences show 20-24% identity and 40-47% similarity to a family of oligopeptidases from bacteria, yeast, and mammals. MIP and these proteins are characterized by a highly conserved motif, F-H-E-X-G-H-(X)2-H-(X)12-G-(X)5-D-(X)2-E-X-P-S-(X)3-E-X, centered around a zinc-binding site and appear to represent a new family of genes associated with proteolytic processing in the mitochondrial and cytosolic compartments. 相似文献

The function of metabolic state in stemness is poorly understood. Mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC) and epiblast stem cells (EpiSC) are at distinct pluripotent states representing the inner cell mass (ICM) and epiblast embryos. Human embryonic stem cells (hESC) are similar to EpiSC stage. We now show a dramatic metabolic difference between these two stages. EpiSC/hESC are highly glycolytic, while ESC are bivalent in their energy production, dynamically switching from glycolysis to mitochondrial respiration on demand. Despite having a more developed and expanding mitochondrial content, EpiSC/hESC have low mitochondrial respiratory capacity due to low cytochrome c oxidase (COX) expression. Similarly, in vivo epiblasts suppress COX levels. These data reveal EpiSC/hESC functional similarity to the glycolytic phenotype in cancer (Warburg effect). We further show that hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF1α) is sufficient to drive ESC to a glycolytic Activin/Nodal-dependent EpiSC-like stage. This metabolic switch during early stem-cell development may be deterministic. 相似文献

Human cytochrome c oxidase subunit VIa polypeptide 1 (COX6A1) was identified as a novel suppressor of Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax)-mediated cell death using yeast-based functional screening of a mammalian cDNA library. The overexpression of COX6A1 significantly suppressed Bax- and N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)retinamide (4-HPR)-induced apoptosis in yeast and human glioblastoma-derived U373MG cells, respectively. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in response to Bax or 4-HPR was inhibited in yeast and U373MG cells that expressed COX6A1, indicating that COX6A1 exerts a protective effect against ROS-induced cell damage. 4-HPR-induced mitochondrial translocation of Bax, release of mitochondrial cytochrome c, and activation of caspase-3 were markedly attenuated in U373MG cells that stably expressed COX6A1. Our results demonstrate that yeast-based functional screening of human genes for inhibitors of Bax-sensitivity in yeast identified a protein that not only suppresses the toxicity of Bax in yeast, but also has a potential role in protecting mammalian cells from 4-HPR-induced apoptosis. 相似文献
