Tissue Specificity | Ubiquitous. Highly expressed in the cerebellar Purkinje cells. |
Post Translational Modifications | Upon import into the mitochondrion, the N-terminal transit peptide is cleaved to generate an intermediate form which undergoes autocatalytic proteolytic processing to generate the proteolytically active mature form. |
Function | Catalytic component of the m-AAA protease, a protease that plays a key role in proteostasis of inner mitochondrial membrane proteins, and which is essential for axonal and neuron development. AFG3L2 possesses both ATPase and protease activities: the ATPase activity is required to unfold substrates, threading them into the internal proteolytic cavity for hydrolysis into small peptide fragments. The m-AAA protease carries out quality control in the inner membrane of the mitochondria by mediating degradation of mistranslated or misfolded polypeptides. The m-AAA protease complex also promotes the processing and maturation of mitochondrial proteins, such as MRPL32/bL32m, PINK1 and SP7. Mediates protein maturation of the mitochondrial ribosomal subunit MRPL32/bL32m by catalyzing the cleavage of the presequence of MRPL32/bL32m prior to assembly into the mitochondrial ribosome. Required for SPG7 maturation into its active mature form after SPG7 cleavage by mitochondrial-processing peptidase (MPP). Required for the maturation of PINK1 into its 52kDa mature form after its cleavage by mitochondrial-processing peptidase (MPP). Acts as a regulator of calcium in neurons by mediating degradation of SMDT1/EMRE before its assembly with the uniporter complex, limiting the availability of SMDT1/EMRE for MCU assembly and promoting efficient assembly of gatekeeper subunits with MCU. Promotes the proteolytic degradation of GHITM upon hyperpolarization of mitochondria: progressive GHITM degradation leads to respiratory complex I degradation and broad reshaping of the mitochondrial proteome by AFG3L2. Also acts as a regulator of mitochondrial glutathione homeostasis by mediating cleavage and degradation of SLC25A39. SLC25A39 cleavage is prevented when SLC25A39 binds iron-sulfur. Involved in the regulation of OMA1-dependent processing of OPA1. May act by mediating processing of OMA1 precursor, participating in OMA1 maturation. |
