Mitochondrial ClpXP protease in Drosophila melanogaster

ClpXP is an ATP-dependent protease of the mitochondrial matrix. Hexameric rings of the AAA+ unfoldase ClpX recognise substrates, unfold them and thread them into the barrel formed by two heptameric rings of the serine peptidase ClpP, where they are degraded. ClpXP contributes to matrix protein quality control and to the mitochondrial unfolded protein response.

FlyBase gene group CLPXP: Mitochondrial clpxp complex
FlyBase release FB2026_03 groups 2 D. melanogaster genes as mitochondrial clpxp complex (CLPXP); this module models that group.
GO:0009368
endopeptidase Clp complex
GO term grounding the module as endopeptidase Clp complex.

FlyBase groups realized by this module: CLPXP (FBgg0002017). Participants were generated from the FlyBase gene-group membership and mapped to UniProtKB by projects/FLYBASE_GENE_GROUPS/generate_modules.py from module_specs/dmel_mitochondrial_clpxp.yaml. Member genes with a gene review in this repository: ClpP, ClpX.

Function consistency and core coverage

1 gene-function check(s) reflected in core functions · 0 conflict(s) · 0 evidence or coverage gap(s) (1 comparison(s))

Retained noncore functions are reported separately; they do not require promotion to core functions. Support from representative genes does not establish conservation across the whole family. Missing reviews or identifiers leave a claim unverified.
