Description

The ATP5PO gene encodes the oligomycin sensitivity conferral protein (OSCP), a component of the peripheral stalk of mitochondrial ATP synthase (Complex V). This subunit is essential for coupling proton translocation to ATP synthesis and for the structural integrity of the enzyme complex.

Protein Summary

The OSCP protein (UniProt P48047) is a 213-amino-acid subunit of the mitochondrial ATP synthase peripheral stalk. It connects the F1 catalytic domain to the membrane-bound Fo domain, regulating ATP synthesis and conferring sensitivity to oligomycin. The protein is highly conserved and expressed in energy-demanding tissues.
