Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 103172 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to be involved in several processes, including mitochondrial nucleoid organization; oxidative phosphorylation; and regulation of mitochondrion organization. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including brain ventricle and choroid plexus; early embryo; hypothalamus mantle layer; renal calyx; and ventral grey horn. Used to study isolated mitochondrial myopathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in frontotemporal dementia and/or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 2; isolated mitochondrial myopathy; and spinal muscular atrophy, Jokela type. Orthologous to human CHCHD10 (coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helix domain containing 10). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous deletion results in mild mitochondrial respiration anomalies in skeletal muscle.
