Gene: PTCD1

Alternate names for this Gene: -

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a mitochondrial protein that binds leucine tRNAs and other mitochondrial RNAs and plays a role in the regulation of translation. Increased expression of this gene results in decreased mitochondrial leucine tRNA levels. Naturally occurring read-through transcription exists between upstream ATP5J2 (ATP synthase, H+ transporting, mitochondrial Fo complex, subunit F2) and this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 7

Location in Chromosome : 7q22.1

Description of this Gene: pentatricopeptide repeat domain 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding

Gene: ATP5MF-PTCD1

Alternate names for this Gene: ATP5J2-PTCD1

Gene Summary: This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the ATP5J2 (ATP synthase, H+ transporting, mitochondrial Fo complex, subunit F2) and PTCD1 (pentatricopeptide repeat domain 1) genes on chromosome 7. The read-through transcript encodes a fusion protein that shares sequence identity with each individual gene product.
