The function of Ensembl gene identifier ENSG00000175606 (TMEM70, transmembrane protein 70) is as follows. Scaffold protein that participates in the c-ring assembly of mitochondrial ATP synthase (F(1)F(0) ATP synthase or complex V) by facilitating the membrane insertion and oligomer formation of the subunit c/ATP5MC1 through its interaction (PubMed:31652072, PubMed:32275929, PubMed:33359711, PubMed:33753518). Therefore, participates in the early stage of mitochondrial ATP synthase biogenesis and also protects subunit c/ATP5MC1 against intramitochondrial proteolysis (PubMed:18953340, PubMed:20937241, PubMed:31652072, PubMed:33359711). In addition, binds the mitochondrial proton-transporting ATP synthase complexes I and may play a role in the stability of its membrane-bound subassemblies (PubMed:32275929). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18953340, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20937241, ECO:0000269|PubMed:31652072, ECO:0000269|PubMed:32275929, ECO:0000269|PubMed:33359711, ECO:0000269|PubMed:33753518}.
