Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nPYROXD2 is a mitochondrial protein that plays a critical role in maintaining proper mitochondrial function in hepatic cells. It is imported into the mitochondrial inner membrane/matrix via the Tom40/Tim23 complex, with the region spanning amino acids 151–230 acting as its targeting sequence. Once localized, PYROXD2 interacts with the complex IV subunit COX5B and is instrumental in preserving mitochondrial membrane potential, regulating intracellular and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS), supporting complex IV activity, and ensuring adequate ATP production and mitochondrial DNA copy number. Loss of PYROXD2 impairs these functions, leading to reduced cell proliferation, decreased ATP levels, and an increase in immature mitochondria, highlighting its indispensable role in mitochondrial integrity and energy metabolism."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nIn addition to its mitochondrial function, PYROXD2 gene expression is subject to transcriptional regulation. The transcription factor myeloid zinc finger 1 (MZF1) binds to a specific cis‐element (TGGGGA) in the PYROXD2 promoter (located at −320/−312) and functions as a positive transactivator. Overexpression of MZF1 enhances PYROXD2 promoter activity in liver cell lines, whereas silencing MZF1 diminishes its expression. However, the correlation between MZF1 levels and PYROXD2 protein expression in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues is not straightforward, suggesting that the PYROXD2 promoter is modulated by an aggregate of transcription factors beyond MZF1."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "2"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Tao Wang, Xiaoyuan Xie, HuiLin Liu, et al.
