Summary |
Enables mitochondrial promoter sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in mitochondrial transcription. Acts upstream of or within mitochondrial respiratory chain complex assembly. Located in mitochondrial nucleoid. Is active in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; branchial arch; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and limb. Used to study Kearns-Sayre syndrome and Parkinson's disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; Huntington's disease; Parkinson's disease; amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; and mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 15. Orthologous to human TFAM (transcription factor A, mitochondrial). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025] |
