| basic FUNCTION
| a versatile hepatotrophic growth factor and a cellular thiol oxidase |
|
being essential for the oxidative phosphorylation, the maintenance of mitochondrial genomes, and the cell division cycle |
|
involved in the synthesis or stability of the nuclear and mitochondrial transcripts (in actively regenerating cells) |
|
involved in oncogenesis (in the liver) |
|
having a function in liver regeneration and spermatogenesis |
|
critically important for the survival of hepatocytes by its association with mitochondria and regulation of ATP synthesis  |
|
is thought to be one of the factors responsible for the extraordinary regenerative capacity of the liver |
|
stimulates hepatocyte proliferation and up-regulates mt-DNA expression and ATP production |
|
may be an important factor involved in the molecular events that trigger neuromuscular diseases |
|
potentially, plays an essential pro-survival role in the maintenance of ESC pluripotency by preserving the structural and functional integrity of their mitochondria, through modulation of the key mitochondrial fission factor DNM1L |
|
prosurvival role in maintaining mitochondrial fission-fusion dynamics in pluripotent ESCs (embryonic stem cell) |
|
hepatotrophic growth factor which has been shown to stimulate hepatic regeneration after partial hepatectomy |
