Crystal structure of Drosophila Miro EF hand and cGTPase domains in the apo state (Apo-MiroS)
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24071720
Function
[MIRO_DROME] Mitochondrial GTPase involved in mitochondrial trafficking. Milt and Miro form an essential protein complex that links Khc to mitochondria for light chain-independent, anterograde transport of mitochondria. Required for axonal transport to synapses within nerve terminals. Required presynaptically but not postsynaptically at neuromuscular junctions (NMJs).[1] [2]
About this Structure
4c0j is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Drosophila melanogaster. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
