Metaxin-2 Lysates

Metaxin-2 is encoded by this gene is highly similar to the metaxin 2 protein from mouse, which has been shown to interact with the mitochondrial membrane protein metaxin 1. Because of this similarity, it is thought that the encoded protein is peripherally associated with the cytosolic face of the outer mitochondrial membrane and be involved in the import of proteins into the mitochondrion. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
