Gene Name | UCP3 |
UniProt No. | P55916 |
Gene ID | 7352 |
Alternative Names | Mitochondrial uncoupling protein 3; SLC25A9; Solute carrier family 25 member 9; UCP 3; UCP3; UCP3_HUMAN; Uncoupling protein 3; Uncoupling protein 3 mitochondrial proton carrier |
Function | UCP are mitochondrial transporter proteins that create proton leaks across the inner mitochondrial membrane, thus uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation. As a result, energy is dissipated in the form of heat. May play a role in the modulation of tissue respiratory control. Participates in thermogenesis and energy balance. |
Involvement In Disease | Defects in UCP3 may be involved in obesity (OBESITY). It is a condition characterized by an increase of body weight beyond the limitation of skeletal and physical requirements, as the result of excessive accumulation of body fat. |
Cellular Localization | Mitochondrion inner membrane. |
Protein Length | Protein fragment |
Sequence | GTLPNIMRNAIVNCAEVVTYDILKEKLLDYHLLT,Belongs to the mitochondrial carrier family. Contains 3 Solcar repeats. |
