MFN2

Mfn2 (Mitofusin 2) is a Protein Coding gene. This gene encodes a mitochondrial membrane protein that participates in mitochondrial fusion and contributes to the maintenance and operation of the mitochondrial network. This protein is involved in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation, and it may play a role in the pathophysiology of obesity. Diseases associated with Mfn2 include Neuropathy, Hereditary Motor And Sensory, Type Via, With Optic Atrophy and Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease, Axonal, Autosomal Dominant, Type 2A2a.

Interaction

Forms homomultimers and heteromultimers with MFN1 (PubMed:26085578). Oligomerization is essential for mitochondrion fusion (Probable). Interacts with VAT1 (By similarity). Interacts with STOML2; may form heterooligomers (PubMed:17121834). Interacts (phosphorylated) with PRKN (PubMed:23620051). Interacts with EIF2AK3 (By similarity). Interacts with THG1L; THG1L probably functions as a guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor/GEF, activating MFN2.

Molecular function
