Timm50 Gene Summary [Rat]
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. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial inner membrane and nuclear speck. Predicted to be part of TIM23 mitochondrial import inner membrane translocase complex. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus; endoplasmic reticulum; and mitochondrion. 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 rat 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.
