Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Mitofusin-2
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. Transmembrane GTPase MFN2
Gene Name MFN2
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in GTPase activity
Specific Function Essential transmembrane GTPase, which mediates mitochondrial fusion. Fusion of mitochondria occurs in many cell types and constitutes an important step in mitochondria morphology, which is balanced between fusion and fission. MFN2 acts independently of the cytoskeleton. It therefore plays a central role in mitochondrial metabolism and may be associated with obesity and/or apoptosis processes. Overexpression induces the formation of mitochondrial networks. Plays an important role in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation.
