GTPBP3 GTP binding protein 3, mitochondrial

Gene ID: 84705, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: MSS1; MTGP1; THDF1; GTPBG3; COXPD23

Summary

This locus encodes a GTP-binding protein. The encoded protein is localized to the mitochondria and may play a role in mitochondrial tRNA modification. Polymorphisms at this locus may be associated with severity of aminoglycoside-induced deafness, a disease associated with a mutation in the 12S rRNA. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]
