Target Details for AIF

Target: AIF (AIFM1) (Apoptosis-Inducing Factor, Mitochondrion-Associated, 1 (AIFM1))

Alternative Name: AIFM1

Background:

Background: Apoptosis-inducing factor 1, mitochondrial, also known as AIF or PDCD8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AIFM1 gene. AIFM1 gene is mapped to Xq26.1 based on an alignment of the AIFM1 sequence with the genomic sequence. This gene encodes a flavoprotein essential for nuclear disassembly in apoptotic cells, and it is found in the mitochondrial intermembrane space in healthy cells. Induction of apoptosis results in the translocation of this protein to the nucleus where it affects chromosome condensation and fragmentation. In addition, this gene product induces mitochondria to release the apoptogenic proteins cytochrome c and caspase-9. Mutations in this gene cause combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 6, which results in a severe mitochondrial encephalomyopathy. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 10.

Gene Full Name: apoptosis inducing factor mitochondria associated 1

Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the FAD-dependent oxidoreductase family.

Molecular Weight: 60 kDa

Gene ID: 9131

UniProt: O95831

Pathways: Apoptosis, Positive Regulation of Endopeptidase Activity, Cell RedoxHomeostasis, Smooth Muscle Cell Migration, Warburg Effect
