About Tafazzin

Summary

Predicted to enable 1-acylglycerophosphocholine O-acyltransferase activity. Involved in positive regulation of ATP biosynthetic process and positive regulation of cardiolipin metabolic process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial inner membrane and mitochondrial outer membrane. Predicted to be active in mitochondrial membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Barth syndrome and dilated cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human TAFAZZIN (tafazzin, phospholipid-lysophospholipid transacylase).
