Gene: TAZ (tafazzin) Homo sapiens
Analyze
Symbol: TAZ
Name: tafazzin
Description: Exhibits 1-acylglycerophosphocholine O-acyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including cardiolipin biosynthetic process; cristae formation; and striated muscle tissue development. Localizes to the mitochondrion. Implicated in Barth syndrome and dilated cardiomyopathy.
Type: protein-coding
RefSeq Status: REVIEWED
Also known as: BTHS; CMD3A; EFE; EFE2; FLJ27390; G4.5; LVNCX; Taz1; transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif; XAP-2

Latest Assembly: GRCh38 - Human Genome Assembly GRCh38
NCBI Annotation Information: Note: TAZ (GeneID 6901) and WWTR1 (GeneID 25937) loci share the TAZ symbol/alias in common. TAZ is a widely used alternative name for the transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (WWTR1) conflicting with the official symbol for tafazzin (TAZ). [19 Jun 2012]
