LONP1 - lon peptidase 1, mitochondrial Gene
Also Known as LON; LONP; PIM1; hLON; LonHS; CODASS; PRSS15
Species: Homo sapiens
About LONP1
This gene has 15 transcripts (splice variants), 193 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 6 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in adrenal (RPKM 45.5), kidney (RPKM 21.0) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a mitochondrial matrix protein that belongs to the Lon family of ATP-dependent proteases. This protein mediates the selective degradation of misfolded, unassembled or oxidatively damaged polypeptides in the mitochondrial matrix. It may also have a chaperone function in the assembly of inner membrane protein complexes, and participate in the regulation of mitochondrial gene expression and maintenance of the integrity of the mitochondrial genome. Decreased expression of this gene has been noted in a patient with hereditary spastic paraplegia (PMID:18378094). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.
