PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	hydrophilic domains located in the intermembrane space
	C-terminus is substantially protected from proteinase K by the outer mitochondrial membrane

HOMOLOGY

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	intracellular

	intracellular,cytoplasm,organelle,membrane
text	integral inner membrane protein

basic FUNCTION	acts as a membrane-bound chaperone necessary for cleavage of COX2 and for interaction of the mature protein with other subunits of cytochrome oxidase in a later step of the assembly process
	control the coordinate assembly process to prevent potentially harmful redox reactions of unassembled or misassembled subunits
	serves as a substrate-specific cofactor during proteolysis and modulates the initial interaction of nonassembled COX2 with the protease
	required for efficient export of the COX2 C-tail
	COX20 chaperone has important roles in leader peptide processing, C-tail export, and stabilization of COX2
	involvement of FAM36A in complex IV function
	function in complex IV assembly

a component

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	interacts by co-immune precipitation with COX18, and this interaction requires the presence of COX2
	COX20 cooperates with SCO1 and SCO2 to mature COX2 and promote the assembly of cytochrome c oxidase
