text localized in the nucleus of spermatogenic cells, suggesting a process of translocation of the transcript from the mitochondria
basic FUNCTION
  • specifically expressed in response to defects in energy production in muscles with mitochondrial abnormalities
  • block proapoptotic BAX function and exert its versatile cytoprotective effects in association with an increase in ATP levels
