About Mpc2

Summary

Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and pyruvate transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in mitochondrial pyruvate transmembrane transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within mitochondrial acetyl-CoA biosynthetic process from pyruvate and positive regulation of Insulin secretion involved in cellular response to glucose stimulus. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Predicted to be integral component of mitochondrial inner membrane. Orthologous to human MPC2 (mitochondrial pyruvate carrier 2).
