Proteins/UNIPROT:Q6P1S2
Regulates mitochondrial morphology and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) homeostasis. Promotes the formation of specialized mitochondrial subdomains called small MTFP1-enriched mitochondria (SMEM). Negatively regulates mitochondrial fusion by excluding fusion coordinator OPA1 from SMEM. Recruits mtDNA, potentially through interaction with SSBP1, and facilitates mtDNA transport to the mitochondrial periphery. Also recruits other proteins, including PHB1, PHB2 and MTFP1, into SMEM which promotes peripheral mitochondrial fission, facilitating lysosome-mediated clearance of damaged mtDNA via mitophagy..
[Isoform 2]: Secreted protein which may play a role in transcription regulation via the MAPK3/MAPK1 pathway through an unidentified receptor on the plasma membrane..
