General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Catalyzes the cyanide-resistant oxidation of ubiquinol and the reduction of molecular oxygen to water, but does not translocate protons and consequently is not linked to oxidative phosphorylation. May increase respiration when the cytochrome respiratory pathway is restricted, or in response to low temperatures. In S.guttatum the alternative respiratory pathway is thermogenic. Ref.1 Ref.3 |
| Catalytic activity | 2 ubiquinol + O2 = 2 ubiquinone + 2 H2O. |
| Cofactor | Binds 2 iron ions per subunit. Ref.4 |
| Enzyme regulation | Not sensitive to pyruvate. Is in a constitutively active state. When the two monomeric subunits are covalently linked by a S-S bond, the enzyme is essentially inactive. Ref.3 Ref.8 |
| Subunit structure | Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Ref.3 |
| Subcellular location | Mitochondrion inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note: Mitochondrial, possibly in the inner surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane. Ref.5 |
| Induction | |
| Miscellaneous | The 3 alternative oxidase proteins detected in S.guttatum, with apparent MW of 35 kDa, 36 kDa and 37 kDa, may be post-translationally modified products of the same AOX1 gene. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the alternative oxidase family. |
