The twin-Cx(9)C motif protein Pet191 is essential for cytochrome c oxidase maturation. The motif Cys residues are functionally important and appear to be present in disulfide linkages within a large oligomeric complex associated with the mitochondrial inner membrane. The import of Pet191 differs from that of other twin-Cx(9)C motif class of proteins in being independent of the Mia40 pathway.
双Cx(9)C基序蛋白Pet191对细胞色素c氧化酶的成熟至关重要。该基序中的半胱氨酸残基在功能上很重要,并且似乎存在于与线粒体内膜相关的大型寡聚复合物中的二硫键中。Pet191的导入不同于其他双Cx(9)C基序类蛋白,它不依赖于Mia40途径。
