A cDNA encoding cytochrome c oxidase (COX) subunit VIa liver isoform (COX6aL) was isolated from a Mus musculus library and sequenced. The protein translated from the nucleotide sequence contains a presequence and is 91% identical to the human cognate sequence over the processed polypeptide region. Northern analysis shows the expression of COX6aL is developmentally regulated in heart, being about equally transcribed with the heart isoform (COX6aH) in 18-day embryos but consisting of less than 25% in adult heart.
