About Mcu

Summary

Enables uniporter activity. Involved in mitochondrial calcium ion transmembrane transport and positive regulation of mitochondrial calcium ion concentration. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Orthologous to human MCU (mitochondrial calcium uniporter). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
