    Summary
    Predicted to enable electron-transferring-flavoprotein dehydrogenase activity; flavin adenine dinucleotide binding activity; and oxidoreductase activity, acting on NAD(P)H, quinone or similar compound as acceptor. Involved in positive regulation of apoptotic process and response to singlet oxygen. Located in mitochondrion and nucleus. Orthologous to human AIFM2 (AIF family member 2).

    2. An AIF1 deletion mutant was resistant to anacardic acid-induced cell death, suggesting a key role of Aif1. Overexpression of Aif1 made cells highly susceptible to anacardic acid, further confirming that Aif1 mediates anacardic acid-induced apoptosis.

    3. Deletion of AIF1 in hxk2Delta cells enhances survival after induction of apoptosis with both H2O2 and acetic acid, rescues the reduction of both growth rate and cell size, abrogates both H2O2 and acetic acid-induced ROS accumulation and decreases cell death, suggesting that Aif1 might be involved in both H2O2 and acetic acid-induced cell death in hxk2Delta cells.
