2.A.9.1.1
Cytochrome oxidase biogenesis protein, Oxa1p (involved in the insertion of a wide range of membrane proteins).  Forms a cation-selective channel (4-state; diameter, 0.6 - 2.0 nm), regulated by the membrane potential and association with the substrate protein (Krüger et al. 2012).  The structure of the dimeric insertion pore associated with the translating ribosome has been solved (Kohler et al. 2009).
