Invertebrate Metaxins 1 and 2: Widely Distributed Proteins Homologous to Vertebrate Metaxins Implicated in Protein Import into Mitochondria

2020-01-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Metaxin 1 and 2 genes, previously investigated in vertebrates, are shown to be widely distributed among invertebrates. But metaxin 3 is absent. The predicted proteins of the invertebrate metaxins were initially identified by homology with human metaxin 1 and 2 proteins, and by the presence of characteristic GST_Metaxin protein domains. Invertebrate metaxins were revealed for a variety of phyla,...
