Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for LONP1(NM_004793.3) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.

Summary
This gene encodes a mitochondrial matrix protein in the Lon family of ATP-dependent proteases. A similar E. coli protein regulates gene expression by targeting specific regulatory proteins for degradation. This protein binds a specific sequence in the light and heavy chain promoters of the mitochondrial genome which are involved in regulation of DNA replication and transcription.
Gene References into function
- may prevent extensive oxidation, aggregation and accumulation of aconitase, which could otherwise compromise mitochondrial function and cellular viability
- Lon participates directly in the metabolism of mtDNA.
- results indicate that mitochondrial Lon is required for normal survival and proliferation; a clear impetus for Lon's evolutionary conservation
- Results demonstrate that mitochondrial DNA binding is a physiological function of Lon and that cellular levels of Lon influence sensitivity to mtDNA damage.
- A review of the current knowledge on both catalytic mechanisms and inhibitors of Lon protease.
- Electrophoretic mobility shift assay and circular dichroism show that ssDNAs with a propensity for forming parallel G-quartets are specifically bound by hLon.
