Target/Specificity | This SCO2 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 196-224 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human SCO2. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | SCO2 Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | SCO2 |
---|---|
Function | Copper metallochaperone essential for the synthesis and maturation of cytochrome c oxidase subunit II (MT-CO2/COX2) by facilitating the incorporation of copper into the Cu(A) site of MT- CO2/COX2 (PubMed:15229189, PubMed:17189203, PubMed:19336478). Could also act as a thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase to regulate the redox state of the cysteines in SCO1 during maturation of MT-CO2/COX2 (PubMed:19336478). |
Cellular Location | Mitochondrion inner membrane; Single-pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitous. |

Background
Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) catalyzes the transfer of electrons from cytochrome c to molecular oxygen, which helps to maintain the proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane that is necessary for aerobic ATP production. Human COX is a multimeric protein complex that requires several assembly factors; this gene encodes one of the COX asembly factors. The encoded protein is a metallochaperone that is involved in the biogenesis of cytochrome c oxidase subunit II. Mutations in this gene are associated with fatal infantile encephalocardiomyopathy.
