The assembly of cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) in yeast mitochondria is shown to be
dependent on a new assembly factor designated Coa1 that associates with the …

The assembly of cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) in yeast mitochondria is dependent on a new
assembly factor designated Coa2. Coa2 was identified from its ability to suppress the …

Cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) is the last electron acceptor in the respiratory chain. The CcO
core is formed by mitochondrial DNA-encoded Cox1, Cox2, and Cox3 subunits. Cox1 …

In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase (COX)
biogenesis is translationally regulated. Mss51, a specific COX1 mRNA translational activator …

Functional interactions of the translational activator Mss51 with both the mitochondrially
encoded COX1 mRNA 5′-untranslated region and with newly synthesized unassembled …

The biogenesis of cytochrome c oxidase initiates with synthesis and maturation of the
mitochondrion-encoded Cox1 subunit prior to the addition of other subunits. Cox1 contains …

Synthesis of the largest cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) subunit, Cox1, on yeast mitochondrial
ribosomes is coupled to assembly of CcO. The translational activator Mss51 is sequestered …

We have characterized Cox16p, a new cytochrome oxidase (COX) assembly factor. This
protein is encoded byCOX16, corresponding to the previously uncharacterized open …

Abstract Members of the Oxa1/YidC/Alb3 family of protein translocases are essential for
assembly of energy-transducing membrane complexes. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Oxa1 …

Cox11p is an integral protein of the inner mitochondrial membrane that is essential for
cytochrome c oxidase assembly. The bulk of the protein is located in the intermembrane …
