Cellular [compartment marker] of mitochondrial inner membrane,Antibody detects COXII protein most optimally in membrane fractions. The signal is weak in a in total protein extract. Blue Native gel electrophoresis (BN-PAGE) has been performed on samples solubilized with digitonin (4:1) and loaded at 100 µg/well. Gel thickness is 2 mm with 4.5-16 % gradient.
Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) catalyzes the reduction of oxygen to water in the respiratory chain within the mitochondrial membrane. Subunits 1-3 form the functional core of the enzyme complex. Subunit 2 (COXII) transfers electrons from cytochrome c to the bimetallic center of catalytic subunit 1 through the binuclear copper A center. Alias: Cytochrome c oxidase subunit 2
