| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of fatty acid beta-oxidation; positive regulation of sequestering of calcium ion; and striated muscle cell differentiation. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in Meckel's cartilage; axial skeleton; esophagus; and retina nuclear layer. Orthologous to human MTLN (mitoregulin). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit abnormal mitrochondrial respiratory complex formation and calcium retention capacity. [provided by MGI curators] |
