Ptcd3 - pentatricopeptide repeat domain 3

Predicted to enable rRNA binding activity and ribosomal small subunit binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mitochondrial translation. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of translation. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; and immune system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 51. Orthologous to human PTCD3 (pentatricopeptide repeat domain 3).
