Gene: MTIF3

Alternate names for this Gene: IF3mt

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a translation initiation factor that is involved in mitochondrial protein synthesis. Polymorphism in this gene is associated with the onset of Parkinson's disease. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 5.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 13

Location in Chromosome : 13q12.2

Description of this Gene: mitochondrial translational initiation factor 3

Type of Gene: protein-coding
