Fetal and adult testis-expressed transcript protein
Definition:
Involved in the regulation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-mitochondria coupling. Negatively regulates the ER-mitochondria distance and Ca(2+) transfer from ER to mitochondria possibly implicating it in the regulation of apoptosis. May collaborate with RNF183 to restrain BIK protein levels thus regulating apoptotic signaling.
