Summary: Enables membrane insertase activity and mitochondrial ribosome binding activity. Involved in mitochondrial proton-transporting ATP synthase complex assembly; protein insertion into mitochondrial inner membrane; and protein insertion into mitochondrial inner membrane from matrix. Located in mitochondrial crista and mitochondrial inner boundary membrane. Orthologous to human OXA1L (OXA1L mitochondrial inner membrane protein).

The ER membrane complex (EMC) can functionally replace the Oxa1 insertase in mitochondria.
Title: The ER membrane complex (EMC) can functionally replace the Oxa1 insertase in mitochondria.
Data indicate that Escherichia coli Ffh protein bound to the large subunit of mitochondrial ribosomes, and could relieve, to some degree, the defect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Oxa1 mutants.
Title: Partial suppression of Oxa1 mutants by mitochondria-targeted signal recognition particle provides insights into the evolution of the cotranslational insertion systems.
observations suggest that the function of Oxa1 is relevant not only for the biogenesis of conserved mitochondrial components such as respiratory chain complexes or ABC transporters but also for mitochondria-specific membrane proteins of eukaryotic origin
Title: The membrane insertase Oxa1 is required for efficient import of carrier proteins into mitochondria.
the close proximity of Oxa1 to ribosomes is not only used to improve membrane insertion but is also critical for the productive assembly of the subunits of the cytochrome c oxidase.
Title: Oxa1-ribosome complexes coordinate the assembly of cytochrome C oxidase in mitochondria.
Oxa1 behaves as a pore-forming translocase that is regulated in a membrane potential and substrate-dependent manner
Title: The mitochondrial oxidase assembly protein1 (Oxa1) insertase forms a membrane pore in lipid bilayers.
Findings show that the distribution of Oxa1 within the inner membrane is dynamic and adapts to different physiological needs.
Title: The inner-mitochondrial distribution of Oxa1 depends on the growth conditions and on the availability of substrates.
neither ATP2 nor OXA1 mRNA targeting was affected by a block in translation initiation, indicating that translation may not be essential for mRNA anchoring

MrpL40, a large ribosomal subunit component, is physically interact with Oxa1.

Yme1 probably chaperones the folding and/or assembly of Oxa1-exported Cox2 in the absence of Mrg1 or Mgr3, since respiratory growth and cytochrome c oxidase assembly in a cox18 mgr3 double-mutant strain overexpressing OXA1 is YME1 dependent
