FUNCTION: SwissProt: P25874 # UCP are mitochondrial transporter proteins that create proton leaks across the inner mitochondrial membrane, thus uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis. As a result, energy is dissipated in the form of heat.
SIZE: 307 amino acids; 33005 Da
SUBUNIT: Acts as a dimer forming a proton channel.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Mitochondrion inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Brown adipose tissue.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P25874 ## Belongs to the mitochondrial carrier family. & Contains 3 Solcar repeats.
