TOMM70A

Mitochondrial import receptor subunit TOM70 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TOMM70A gene.[1][2]

The translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane (TOM) complex is a multisubunit complex involved in the recognition, unfolding, and translocation of preproteins into the mitochondria. See TIM17A (MIM 605057).[supplied by OMIM][2]
