Boymaw, Overexpressed in Brains with Major Psychiatric Disorders, May Encode a Small Protein to Inhibit Mitochondrial Function and Protein Translation

Baohu Ji, Minjung Kim, Kerin Higa, Xianjin Zhou

The paper identifies Boymaw as a gene that encodes a small mitochondrial protein which inhibits oxidoreductase activity, rRNA expression, and protein translation, and is upregulated in psychiatric disorders.
