    Summary
    Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Involved in anesthesia-resistant memory; calcium import into the mitochondrion; and medium-term memory. Predicted to be part of uniplex complex. Is expressed in several structures, including adult head; anterior endoderm; anterior endoderm anlage; embryonic/larval midgut; and mesoderm. Used to study myopathy with extrapyramidal signs. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in myopathy with extrapyramidal signs. Orthologous to human MICU1 (mitochondrial calcium uptake 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
