Msto1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to be involved in mitochondrion distribution and mitochondrion organization. Predicted to be located in cytosol and mitochondrial outer membrane. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human MSTO1 (misato mitochondrial distribution and morphology regulator 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

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 Msto1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
