Extra Details:
Frataxin is a small protein, localized to the mitochondrion. The function of frataxin is not entirely clear, but it seems to be involved in assembly of iron-sulfur clusters. It has been proposed to act as either an iron Chaperone (protein) or an iron storage protein. Reduced expression of frataxin is the cause of Friedrich's ataxia (FRDA), a lethal neurodegenerative disease. This nuclear gene encodes a mitochondrial protein which belongs to FRATAXIN family. The protein functions in regulating mitochondrial iron transport and respiration. The expansion of intronic trinucleotide repeat GAA results in Friedreich ataxia. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified.
