High impact information on COX6A2

  • Nonsynonymous (amino acid replacement) substitutions in the COX6AH gene occurred more frequently than in the ubiquitously expressed COX6AL gene [1].
  • Structure of the human gene (COX6A2) for the heart/muscle isoform of cytochrome c oxidase subunit VIa and its chromosomal location in humans, mice, and cattle [2].
  • From the regions of known gene conservation among these three species, we predicted that human COX6AH would be located on chromosome 16p [2].
  • The sequences of the proximal 5' flanking regions of COX6AH genes are highly conserved between human, bovine, and rodent [2].
  • The human COX6AH gene spans about 1 kb and contains three exons and two small introns [2].
