Reactive mitochondrial oxygen species modulator 1. This is a family of small, approximately 100 amino acid, proteins found from yeasts to humans. The majority of endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells are produced by the mitochondrial respiratory chain. An increase or imbalance in ROS alters the intracellular redox homeostasis, triggers DNA damage, and may contribute to cancer development and progression. Members of this family are mitochondrial reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (Romo1) proteins that are responsible for increasing the level of ROS in cells. Increased Romo1 expression can have a number of other effects including: inducing premature senescence of cultured human fibroblasts and increased resistance to 5-fluorouracil.

Tips:  If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position. The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs. Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below. Range on the Protein: Protein ID Protein Position Domain Position:  No Conserved Features/Sites Found for Romo1
