Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.2.0)
Predicted to enable intermediate filament binding activity; phosphatase activity; and phosphatidylinositol binding activity. Involved in mitochondrion distribution and muscle cell cellular homeostasis. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of catabolic process; negative regulation of intracellular signal transduction; and positive regulation of skeletal muscle tissue growth. Located in I band. Is expressed in embryo and trunk unsegmented mesenchyme. Used to study centronuclear myopathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital structural myopathy. Orthologous to human MTM1 (myotubularin 1).
