Gene: SAMM50

Alternate names for this Gene: CGI-51|OMP85|SAM50|TOB55|TRG-3|YNL026W

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a component of the Sorting and Assembly Machinery (SAM) of the mitochondrial outer membrane. The Sam complex functions in the assembly of beta-barrel proteins into the outer mitochondrial membrane.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 22

Location in Chromosome : 22q13.31

Description of this Gene: SAMM50 sorting and assembly machinery component

Type of Gene: protein-coding

Gene: PARVB

Alternate names for this Gene: CGI-56

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the parvin family of actin-binding proteins, which play a role in cytoskeleton organization and cell adhesion. These proteins are associated with focal contacts and contain calponin homology domains that bind to actin filaments. This family member binds to alphaPIX and alpha-actinin, and it can inhibit the activity of integrin-linked kinase. This protein also functions in tumor suppression. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants.
