Summary
Predicted to be involved in mitochondrion organization. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein transport. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cerebral cortex ventricular layer; liver lobe; pharyngo-tympanic tube; and skin. Orthologous to human MTX1 (metaxin 1).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
