The COX7B Antibody (PAC013911) is a polyclonal antibody designed for research involving COX7B, a subunit of cytochrome c oxidase involved in electron transport and ATP production in the mitochondria. This antibody, raised in rabbits, is highly specific to human samples and has been validated for use in various applications including Western blotting. COX7B is a critical component of the electron transport chain and plays a key role in mitochondrial function and energy production. Its significance in cellular respiration makes it a valuable target for studies in mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic disorders, and diseases related to impaired energy production.
Understanding the function and expression of COX7B can provide insights into the mechanisms underlying these conditions and aid in the development of potential therapeutic strategies.Overall, the COX7B Antibody is a valuable tool for researchers studying mitochondrial biology, bioenergetics, and related diseases, allowing for the detection and analysis of COX7B protein expression in various cell types and tissues. Its high specificity and sensitivity make it ideal for use in immunology, cancer research, and other fields where mitochondrial function is a focus of investigation.

Background:
Cytochrome c oxidase (COX), the terminal component of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, catalyzes the electron transfer from reduced cytochrome c to oxygen. This component is a heteromeric complex consisting of 3 catalytic subunits encoded by mitochondrial genes and multiple structural subunits encoded by nuclear genes. The mitochondrially-encoded subunits function in electron transfer, and the nuclear-encoded subunits may function in the regulation and assembly of the complex. This nuclear gene encodes subunit VIIb, which is highly similar to bovine COX VIIb protein and is found in all tissues. This gene may have several pseudogenes on chromosomes 1, 2, 20 and 22.
