Cell localization:Cytoplasm.This gene encodes a member of the dynamin superfamily of GTPases. The encoded protein mediates mitochondrial and peroxisomal division, and is involved in developmentally regµLated apoptosis and programmed necrosis. Dysfunction of this gene is implicated in several neurological disorders, including Alzheimers disease. Mutations in this gene are associated with the autosomal dominant disorder, encephalopathy, lethal, due to defective mitochondrial and peroxisomal fission (EMPF). Alternative splicing resµLts in mµLtiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013],
