Background Information
Mitochondrial transcription termination factor (MTERF)also named as Mterf1 is a 399 amino acid protein, which localizes in the mitochondrion and belongs to the mTERF family. MTERF contains three leucine zippers that form a three-stranded coiled-coil that binds to DNA. It has been suggested that only the phosphorylated form of MTERF has transcription termination activity. MTERF plays a central role in the control of mitochondrial rRNA and mRNA synthesis. MTERFD1 is also thought to act as a mitochondrial transcription regulator and is expressed as two isoforms produced by alternative splicing.Using DNA affinity chromatography, a fraction called MTERF was found to be associated with foot-printing capacity, and this contained two polypeptides of 34 and 31 kDa. Moreover, termination-promoting activity appears to reside in the 34-kDa protein. (PMID:7681833).
