About AIFM1

Cytogenetic location: Xq26.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:130,129,362-130,165,841 (from NCBI)

This gene has 31 transcripts (splice variants), 204 orthologues, 7 paralogues and is associated with 9 phenotypes. Broad expression in kidney (RPKM 48.3), heart (RPKM 22.2) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a flavoprotein essential for nuclear disassembly in apoptotic cells, and it is found in the mitochondrial intermembrane space in healthy cells. Induction of Apoptosis results in the translocation of this protein to the nucleus where it affects chromosome condensation and fragmentation. In addition, this gene product induces mitochondria to release the apoptogenic proteins cytochrome c and caspase-9. Mutations in this gene cause combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 6 (COXPD6), a severe mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, as well as Cowchock syndrome, also known as X-linked recessive Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease-4 (CMTX-4), a disorder resulting in neuropathy, and axonal and motor-sensory defects with deafness and cognitive disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 10. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
