Timm50 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including cysteine-type endopeptidase activator activity; interleukin-2 receptor binding activity; and phosphoprotein phosphatase activity. Predicted to be involved in mitochondrial membrane organization; protein dephosphorylation; and protein import into mitochondrial matrix. Predicted to act upstream of or within release of cytochrome c from mitochondria. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; alimentary system; cerebral cortex; olfactory epithelium; and submandibular gland primordium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in 3-methylglutaconic aciduria type 9. Orthologous to human TIMM50 (translocase of inner mitochondrial membrane 50).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Timm50 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
