mitochondrial fission process 1

MTP18 is a mitochondrial protein and downstream target of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (see PIK3CA, MIM 171834) signaling pathway that plays a role in cell viability and mitochondrial dynamics (Tondera et al., 2004 [PubMed 15155745]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Fas (TNFRSF6)-associated via death domain

The protein encoded by this gene is an adaptor molecule that interacts with various cell surface receptors and mediates cell apoptotic signals. Through its C-terminal death domain, this protein can be recruited by TNFRSF6/Fas-receptor, tumor necrosis factor receptor, TNFRSF25, and TNFSF10/TRAIL-receptor, and thus it participates in the death signaling initiated by these receptors. Interaction of this protein with the receptors unmasks the N-terminal effector domain of this protein, which allows it to recruit caspase-8, and thereby activate the cysteine protease cascade. Knockout studies in mice also suggest the importance of this protein in early T cell development. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

cytochrome c oxidase subunit VIa polypeptide 1

Cytochrome c oxidase (COX), the terminal enzyme of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, catalyzes the electron transfer from reduced cytochrome c to oxygen. It is a heteromeric complex consisting of 3 catalytic subunits encoded by mitochondrial genes and multiple structural subunits encoded by nuclear genes. The mitochondrially-encoded subunits function in the electron transfer and the nuclear-encoded subunits may function in the regulation and assembly of the complex. This nuclear gene encodes polypeptide 1 (liver isoform) of subunit VIa, and polypeptide 1 is found in all non-muscle tissues. Polypeptide 2 (heart/muscle isoform) of subunit VIa is encoded by a different gene, and is present only in striated muscles. These two polypeptides share 66% amino acid sequence identity. It has been reported that there may be several pseudogenes on chromosomes 1, 6, 7q21, 7q31-32 and 12. However, only one pseudogene (COX6A1P) on chromosome 1p31.1 has been documented.

Involved in several processes, including peptidyl-lysine trimethylation; positive regulation of proton-transporting ATP synthase activity, rotational mechanism; and positive regulation of sensory perception of pain. Located in mitochondrial crista. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

lysine acetyltransferase 14

CSRP2 is a protein containing two LIM domains, which are double zinc finger motifs found in proteins of diverse function. CSRP2 and some related proteins are thought to act as protein adapters, bridging two or more proteins to form a larger protein complex. The protein encoded by this gene binds to one of the LIM domains of CSRP2 and contains an acetyltransferase domain. Although the encoded protein has been detected in the cytoplasm, it is predominantly a nuclear protein. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]

EEF1A lysine methyltransferase 2

Enables protein-lysine N-methyltransferase activity. Involved in peptidyl-lysine methylation. Located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

EEF1A lysine methyltransferase 4

This gene encodes a member of the lysine-specific methyltransferase (KMT) family. The encoded enzyme catalyzes the methylation of lysine-36 of the eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha. Methylation by this enzyme may affect endoplasmic reticulum-related processes. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

EEF1A lysine methyltransferase 3

Enables heat shock protein binding activity and protein-lysine N-methyltransferase activity. Involved in peptidyl-lysine methylation. Located in several cellular components, including centrosome; chromosome; and nucleoplasm. Part of protein-containing complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

electron transfer flavoprotein subunit beta lysine methyltransferase

Enables heat shock protein binding activity and protein-lysine N-methyltransferase activity. Involved in negative regulation of fatty acid beta-oxidation using acyl-CoA dehydrogenase. Located in mitochondrial matrix. Part of protein-containing complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

citrate synthase lysine methyltransferase

Enables protein-lysine N-methyltransferase activity. Involved in peptidyl-lysine dimethylation; peptidyl-lysine monomethylation; and peptidyl-lysine trimethylation. Located in mitochondrion. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

lysine demethylase 4F

Predicted to enable histone H3K9 demethylase activity. Predicted to be involved in chromatin remodeling and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Predicted to be active in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

HemK methyltransferase 2, ETF1 glutamine and histone H4 lysine

This gene encodes an N(6)-adenine-specific DNA methyltransferase. The encoded enzyme may be involved in the methylation of release factor I during translation termination. This enzyme is also involved in converting the arsenic metabolite monomethylarsonous acid to the less toxic dimethylarsonic acid. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 11. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2023]
