Target Species

Human

Target Name

ATAD1

Target Full Name

Outer mitochondrial transmembrane helix translocase

Target Function

Outer mitochondrial translocase required to remove mislocalized tail-anchored transmembrane proteins on mitochondria. Specifically recognizes and binds tail-anchored transmembrane proteins: acts as a dislocase that mediates the ATP-dependent extraction of mistargeted tail-anchored transmembrane proteins from the mitochondrion outer membrane. Also plays a critical role in regulating the surface expression of AMPA receptors (AMPAR), thereby regulating synaptic plasticity and learning and memory. Required for NMDA-stimulated AMPAR internalization and inhibition of GRIA1 and GRIA2 recycling back to the plasma membrane; these activities are ATPase-dependent.

Target Subcellular Location

Mitochondrion outer membrane; Single-pass membrane protein. Peroxisome membrane; Single-pass membrane protein. Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic cell membrane; Single-pass membrane protein.
