UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q7YU24 (Q7YU24)
Gene Name:
Marf
Organism: Drosophila melanogaster (Fruit fly)
Function: Mitochondrial outer membrane GTPase that mediates mitochondrial clustering and fusion (PubMed:18799731, PubMed:20869429, PubMed:22396657, PubMed:24192653, PubMed:26214738). Mitochondrial fusion is the physical merging of mitochondria that gives rise to mitochondrial networks, and this process is counterbalanced by mitochondrial fission which fragments networks (PubMed:20869429, PubMed:22396657, PubMed:24192653). Promotes, but is not required for park recruitment to dysfunctional mitochondria (PubMed:20194754)
