cox5aa


Official Full Name
cytochrome c oxidase subunit 5Aa
Organism
Danio rerio
Gene ID
554101
Background
Enables cytochrome-c oxidase activity. Acts upstream of or within embryonic organ development and spinal cord motor neuron differentiation. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Predicted to be part of respiratory chain complex IV. Is expressed in several structures, including adaxial cell; alar plate midbrain region; immature eye; musculature system; and nervous system. Used to study ciliopathy and visceral heterotaxy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in mitochondrial complex IV deficiency nuclear type 20. Orthologous to human COX5A (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 5A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Feb 2025]
