UCP1 - Ucp1 uncoupling protein 1 Gene
Also Known as Ucp; Ucpa; Uncp
Species: Rattus norvegicus
Summary
Enables GDP binding activity; GTP binding activity; and Oxidative Phosphorylation uncoupler activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to hormone stimulus; cellular response to lipid; and proton transmembrane transport. Located in mitochondrion. Biomarker of prediabetes syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human UCP1 (uncoupling protein 1).
