Gene

cox-5B

Species
Caenorhabditis elegans
Symbol
cox-5B
Name
Cytochrome OXidase assembly protein 5B
Synonyms
  • cco-1
  • CELE_F26E4.9
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity. Involved in determination of adult lifespan; lipid storage; and proton motive force-driven mitochondrial ATP synthesis. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial envelope. Predicted to be part of respiratory chain complex IV. Orthologous to human COX5B (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 5B).
WB Description
cox-5b encodes the ortholog of the nuclear-encoded cytochrome c oxidase-1 subunit Vb/COX4, a component of the electron transport chain in mitochondria; knock-down of cox-5b via RNA interference in specific tissues like body wall muscle decreases life span, whereas knock-down in the nervous system and intestine increases life-span; the effects of cox-5b on life span indicate that the electron transport chain functions in a tissue-specific manner to affect the aging process, and studies show that this effect is dependent on the mitochondrial unfolded protein response.
