Predicted to enable translation elongation factor activity. Predicted to be involved in mitochondrial translational elongation. Predicted to act upstream of or within translation. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane and myelin sheath. Is expressed in embryo. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 4. Orthologous to human TUFM (Tu translation elongation factor, mitochondrial). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
