Gene information for MTRF1L (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID54516
Official gene symbolMTRF1L
Full namemitochondrial translational release factor 1-like
Aliases,MGC102748,MRF1L,mtRF1a,
Gene summaryMitochondrial DNA encodes 13 proteins that play essential roles in the respiratory chain, while all proteins involved in mitochondrial translation are encoded by nuclear genes that are imported from the cytoplasm. MTRF1L is a nuclear-encoded protein that functions as a releasing factor that recognizes termination codons and releases mitochondrial ribosomes from the synthesized protein (summary by Nozaki et al., 2008 [PubMed 18429816]).[supplied by OMIM]
