Function
MRS2_HUMAN Magnesium transporter that mediates the influx of magnesium into the mitochondrial matrix (PubMed:11401429, PubMed:18384665). Required for normal expression of the mitochondrial respiratory complex I subunits (PubMed:18384665).[1] [2] C562_ECOLX Electron-transport protein of unknown function.
