Primary Identifier | IPR039433 | Type | Domain |
Short Name | Mff-like_dom |
description | This entry represents a domain found in mitochondrial fission factor (Mff) and at the C terminus of FATE1. This domain has a predicted transmembrane segment preceded by a coiled-coil region. Despite their similarity in the C terminus, FATE1 lacks a Mff-similar N-terminal domain that is essential for interaction of Mff with the dynamin-related GTPase Drp1, which mediates mitochondrial fission. Instead, FATE1 is involved in the regulation of ER-mitochondria distance and Ca(2+) uptake by mitochondria []. |
