ATP dependent Clp protease ATP binding subunit clpX like, mitochondrial, Caseinolytic protease X, clpX, ClpX caseinolytic peptidase X homolog.
ATP-dependent specificity component of the Clp protease complex. Hydrolyzes ATP. Targets specific substrates for degradation by the Clp complex. Can perform chaperone functions in the absence of CLPP. Enhances the DNA-binding activity of TFAM and is required for maintaining a normal mitochondrial nucleoid structure.
