SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namemitochondrial pyruvate carrier 1
Gene Symbol MPC1
SynonymsMPYCD; BRP44L; CGI-129; dJ68L15.3;
Alternate namesmitochondrial pyruvate carrier 1; HSPC040 protein; brain protein 44-like protein;
Chromosome6
Map Location6q27
SummaryThe 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]
