COX18 cytochrome c oxidase assembly factor COX18 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 285521)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 285521)
Symbol: COX18
Full name: cytochrome c oxidase assembly factor COX18
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: COX18HS; OXA1L2
Summary: This gene encodes a cytochrome c oxidase assembly protein. The encoded protein is essential for integral membrane protein insertion into the mitochondrial inner membrane. It is also required for cytochrome c oxidase assembly and activity. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
