mus-10 — Neurospora crassa

Summary

NCU02379 (mus-10) on Neurospora crassa chromosome 7 encodes a protein with an F-box domain and a hemimethylated DNA-binding domain, and is annotated with DNA binding molecular function. The gene is associated with mitochondrial outer membrane fusion, mitochondrial fission, membrane fusion, cellular senescence, secretion, methylation, and DNA repair. Studies of related F-box and hemimethylated DNA-binding domain-containing proteins in other species connect the broader gene family to these processes, though such roles are not yet established for mus-10 itself.
