About SLC25A27

Cytogenetic location: 6p12.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:46,652,975-46,678,190 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 148 orthologues and 49 paralogues. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 13.5), ovary (RPKM 8.8) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

Mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCP) are members of the larger family of mitochondrial anion carrier proteins (MACP). UCPs separate oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis with energy dissipated as heat, also referred to as the mitochondrial proton leak. UCPs facilitate the transfer of anions from the inner to the outer mitochondrial membrane and the return transfer of protons from the outer to the inner mitochondrial membrane. They also reduce the mitochondrial membrane potential in mammalian cells. Tissue specificity occurs for the different UCPs and the exact methods of how UCPs transfer H+/OH- are not known. UCPs contain the three homologous protein domains of MACPs. Transcripts of this gene are only detected in brain tissue and are specifically modulated by various environmental conditions. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
