Protein Domain : Romo1/Mgr2 IPR018450

Type  Family
Description  This entry includes a group of mitochondrial proteins, including reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (Romo1) from animals and Mgr2 from fungi. Budding yeast Mgr2 is a subunit of the TIM23 translocase complex, which translocates preproteins into and across the membrane and associates with the matrix-localized import motor. It is required for binding of Tim21 to TIM23(CORE). Mrg2 is essential for cell growth at elevated temperature and for efficient protein import [ ]. Romo1 is responsible for increasing the level of ROS in cells. In various cancer cell lines with elevated levels of ROS there is also an increased abundance of Romo1 []. Increased Romo1 expression can have a number of other affects including: inducing premature senescence of cultured human fibroblasts [, ] and increased resistance to 5-fluorouracil [].
