APLF
Description
The APLF gene (Apoptosis-inducing factor 1, mitochondrial, like) plays a crucial role in cellular processes like DNA repair, cell cycle regulation, and apoptosis. It encodes a protein that localizes to mitochondria and participates in signaling pathways that influence cell fate. APLF is involved in maintaining genomic stability and preventing uncontrolled cell growth, making it a potential target for cancer therapies.
