Gene: ATPAF1

Alternate names for this Gene: ATP11|ATP11p

Gene Summary: This gene encodes an assembly factor for the F(1) component of the mitochondrial ATP synthase. This protein binds specifically to the F1 beta subunit and is thought to prevent this subunit from forming nonproductive homooligomers during enzyme assembly. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1p33

Description of this Gene: ATP synthase mitochondrial F1 complex assembly factor 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
