Description

MTFR1L (Mitochondrial Fission Regulator 1 Like) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1p36.13. It encodes a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial protein that is predicted to play a role in mitochondrial fission and dynamics. The protein is localized to the mitochondria and may be involved in regulating mitochondrial morphology and cellular energy metabolism. Expression data suggest broad tissue distribution with highest levels in the brain and heart.

Protein Summary

MTFR1L encodes a 361-amino acid protein with a predicted mitochondrial targeting sequence. The protein is localized to the mitochondrial outer membrane and is thought to regulate mitochondrial fission, similar to its paralog MTFR1. It may interact with other mitochondrial dynamics proteins to modulate organelle morphology and cellular respiration. Structural predictions indicate a coiled-coil domain involved in protein-protein interactions.
