GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
MTCH1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
CGI-64, PSAP, SLC25A49
Description
Mitochondrial carrier 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the mitochondrial carrier family. The encoded protein is localized to the mitochondrion inner membrane and induces apoptosis independent of the proapoptotic proteins Bax and Bak. Pseudogenes on chromosomes 6 and 11 have been identified for this gene. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012]
