VPS13D
Functions in promoting mitochondrial clearance by mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy), also possibly by positively regulating mitochondrial fission. Mitophagy plays an important role in regulating cell health and mitochondrial size and homeostasis. Belongs to the VPS13 family. Widely expressed. 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
