The biogenesis of mitochondrial respiratory chain components is complex. Mammalian complex I (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase) contains 44 different subunits, an FMN and seven iron-sulfur centers. Its assembly involves at least twelve additional proteins, called assembly factors. One of these is FOXRED1, a 486-amino acid FAD-dependent oxidoreductase. FOXRED1 is a member of the d-amino acid oxidase (DAO) family. A structural model of FOXRED1 reveals a large substrate-binding cavity and a putative oxygen-binding site. These features strongly suggest that FOXRED1 is catalytically active as an oxidoreductase. A metabolic role for FOXRED1 in the biogenesis of complex I should be considered.
线粒体呼吸链组分的生物合成过程很复杂。哺乳动物的复合体I(NADH:泛醌氧化还原酶)包含44个不同的亚基、一个FMN和七个铁硫中心。其组装过程至少涉及另外12种蛋白质,即组装因子。其中之一是FOXRED1,一种含486个氨基酸的FAD依赖性氧化还原酶。FOXRED1是d-氨基酸氧化酶(DAO)家族的成员。FOXRED1的结构模型显示出一个大的底物结合腔和一个假定的氧结合位点。这些特征强烈表明FOXRED1作为氧化还原酶具有催化活性。应考虑FOXRED1在复合体I生物合成中的代谢作用。
