    Summary
    Involved in mitochondrial electron transport, cytochrome c to oxygen. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Predicted to be part of respiratory chain complex IV. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in mitochondrial complex IV deficiency nuclear type 16. Orthologous to human COX4I1 (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 4I1) and COX4I2 (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 4I2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
