| Gene Symbol | MPC1 |
| Entrez Gene ID | 51660 |
| Full Name | mitochondrial pyruvate carrier 1 |
| Synonyms | BRP44L,CGI-129,MPYCD,SLC54A1,dJ68L15.3 |
| General protein information |
|
| Gene Type | protein-coding |
| Organism | Homo sapiens(human) |
| Genome | |
| Summary | The protein encoded by this gene is part of an MPC1/MPC2 heterodimer that is responsible for transporting pyruvate into mitochondria. The encoded protein is found in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Defects in this gene are a cause of mitochondrial pyruvate carrier deficiency. Several transcript variants, some protein coding and one non-protein coding, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]. |
