MIPEP, Official Symbol MIPEPprovided by HGNC Official Full Name mitochondrial intermediate peptidaseprovided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:7104 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000027001 MIM:602241; AllianceGenome:HGNC:7104 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as MIP; HMIP; COXPD31 Summary The product of this gene performs the final step in processing a specific class of nuclear-encoded proteins targeted to the mitochondrial matrix or inner membrane. This protein is primarily involved in the maturation of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS)-related proteins. This gene may contribute to the functional effects of frataxin deficiency and the clinical manifestations of Friedreich ataxia.
