Facts about BCL2/adenovirus E1B 19 kDa protein-interacting protein 3.
Involved in mitochondrial quality control through its interaction with SPATA18/MIEAP: in response to mitochondrial damage, participates in mitochondrial protein catabolic process (also named MALM) resulting in the degradation of damaged proteins within mitochondria. The physical interaction of SPATA18/MIEAP, BNIP3 and BNIP3L/NIX in the mitochondrial outer membrane regulates the opening of a pore in the mitochondrial double membrane in order to mediate the translocation of lysosomal proteins in the cytoplasm to the mitochondrial matrix.

Mitochondrion. Mitochondrion outer membrane; Single-pass membrane protein. Coexpression with the EIB 19-kDa protein results in a shift in NIP3 localization pattern to the nuclear envelope. Colocalizes with ACAA2 in the mitochondria. Colocalizes with SPATA18 at the mitochondrion outer membrane.
