LONP1 wt Allele

**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human LONP1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 19p13.2 and is approximately 29 kb in length. This allele, which encodes Lon protease homolog, mitochondrial protein, plays a role in selective proteolysis of damaged polypeptides, misfolded proteins and short-lived regulatory proteins. Mutation of the gene is associated with CODAS syndrome.
