| Scientific background: | Tafazzin, also known as G4.5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAZ gene. Cardiolipin is a complex glycerophospholipid with 4 acyl groups that localizes to the mitochondrial inner membrane and has a role in mitochondrial structure and function. By positional cloning, TAZ was identified within the critical Barth syndrome region on Xq28. Tafazzin is involved in the metabolism of cardiolipin. It is a component of the hippo signaling pathway thatcontrols tissue growth in animals. And it can function as aphospholipid lysophospholipid transacylase. |
