Function

Protein required for the cotranslational protein quality control in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Associates with newly synthesized polypeptides and may act as a chaperone that cooperates with OXA1L for the insertion of newly synthesized mitochondrial proteins into the inner membrane. Required for the assembly of the ND4 module of mitochondrial complex I.
