About mt-Co2

Summary

Predicted to enable copper ion binding activity. Predicted to contribute to cytochrome-c oxidase activity. Involved in several processes, including lactation; positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process; and positive regulation of necrotic cell death. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Predicted to be part of respiratory chain complex IV. Biomarker of colorectal carcinoma and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to several human genes including MTCO2P12 (MT-CO2 pseudogene 12). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
