Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a mitochondrial solute carrier protein family member. It functions in promoting mitochondrial fission, and prevents the formation of hyperfilamentous mitochondria. Mutation of this gene results in neuropathy and optic atrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016].
UniProt Summary: May play a role in mitochondrial dynamics by controlling mitochondrial membrane fission. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26168012}.
