High impact information on COX8

We have isolated the bovine COX8H gene for the heart/muscle isoform of cytochrome c oxidase (COX) subunit VIII from a library of bovine genomic DNA cloned into lambda EMBL3 [1].
The COX8H gene was mapped by bovine x rodent somatic cell hybrid mapping panels to bovine (BTA) Chromosome (Chr) 25 with 100% concordancy [1].

Biological context of COX8

Studies on cytochrome c oxidase, X. Isolation and amino-acid sequence of polypeptide VIIIb [2].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of COX8

The isolation and sequence determination of the cytoplasmically synthesized polypeptide VIIIb from beef heart cytochrome c oxidase is described [2].
