Mtg1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable GTPase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including mitochondrial large ribosomal subunit assembly; regulation of mitochondrial translation; and regulation of respiratory system process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial inner membrane; mitochondrial ribosome; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in mitochondrial matrix. Orthologous to human MTG1 (mitochondrial ribosome associated GTPase 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 rat Mtg1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
