Gene Information

human ... MTFP1(51537)

General description

Mitochondrial fission process 1/mitochondrial 18 kDa protein (MTFP1/MTP18), a nuclear-encoded integral protein, is located in the mitochondria. It is also a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-dependent protein. MTP18 comprises three α-helical stretches or transmembrane (TM) domains of high hydrophobicity. The MTFP1 gene is located on human chromosome 22q12.2.

Specificity

The antibody detects endogenous levels of total MTFP1 protein.

Immunogen

Fusion protein corresponding to a region derived from internal residues of human mitochondrial fission process 1

Application

Anti-MTFP1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blot (1:1000).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mitochondrial fission process 1/mitochondrial 18 kDa protein (MTFP1/MTP18) controls mitochondrial fission Hence it helps to maintain the morphology of the mitochondria. Overexpression of MTP18 can facilitate fragmentation of the mitochondria. Loss-of-function of MTFP1 protein promotes cell death. It is crucial for cell viability.

Mitochondrial fission process 1 (MTFP1) is a novel nuclear-encoded protein that promotes mitochondrial fission. Increasing lines of evidence indicate that increased mitochondrial fission is involved in carcinogenesis and tumor progression. However, the expression and biological effects of MTFP1 in cancer
