Function |
Mitochondrial E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that plays a crucial role in the control of mitochondrial morphology by acting as a positive regulator of mitochondrial fission. May play a role in the prevention of cell senescence acting as a regulator of mitochondrial quality control. Promotes ubiquitination of FIS1, DNM1L and MFN1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16874301, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17606867, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19741096, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20103533}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Mitochondrion outer membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Note=Authors show that the protein can be detected in endoplasmic reticulum (PubMed:14722266). Authors (PubMed:16874301) show its presence only in mitochondria (PubMed:16874301). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14722266, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16874301}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in brain, heart, liver, lung, spleen, stomach, testis, skeletal and muscle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16874301}.
