Outer Mitochondrial Transmembrane Helix Translocase

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein|Enzyme

**Definition:** Outer mitochondrial transmembrane helix translocase (361 aa, ~41 kDa) is encoded by the human ATAD1 gene. This protein is involved in the ATP-dependent localization of proteins mistargeted to the outer mitochondrial membrane and the internalization of ligand-bound glutamate receptor proteins from postsynaptic membranes.

**Synonyms:** - ATAD1 - EC 7.4.2.- - Thorase - hATAD1
