PKHF1 May induce apoptosis through the lysosomal-mitochondrial pathway. Translocates to the lysosome initiating the permeabilization of lysosomal membrane (LMP) and resulting in the release of CTSD and CTSL to the cytoplasm. Triggers the caspase-independent apoptosis by altering mitochondrial membrane permeabilization (MMP) resulting in the release of PDCD8. Highly expressed in heart and skeletal muscle. Weakly expressed in brain, thymus, spleen, kidney, liver, small intestine, placenta and lung. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
