A complex of Cox4 and mitochondrial Hsp70 plays an important role in the assembly of the cytochrome c oxidase
The biogenesis of Cox4 is unknown. Cox4, mtHsp70, and Mge1 form a complex that promotes the assembly of cytochrome c oxidase. In the absence of the mature cytochrome c oxidase, Cox4 arrests at the chaperone complex. This complex delivers Cox4 into the assembly line of complex IV when needed.
