    Summary
    Predicted to enable rRNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including mitochondrial transcription; protein targeting to mitochondrion; and ribosome assembly. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including embryo ectoderm; limb bud; nervous system; sensory organ; and tongue. Orthologous to human MTERF4 (mitochondrial transcription termination factor 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
