MCUR1 is a prognostic biomarker for ovarian cancer patients.
Title: MCUR1 is a prognostic biomarker for ovarian cancer patients.
Yeast homologs of human MCUR1 regulate mitochondrial proline metabolism.
Title: Yeast homologs of human MCUR1 regulate mitochondrial proline metabolism.
Results found MCUR1 expression significantly higher in HCC with metastasis and associated with tumor progression. The essential role of MCUR1 in promoting epithelial-mesenchymal transition, invasion and migration was found through the activation of ROS/Nrf2/Notch signaling by inducing mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake.
Title: MCUR1 facilitates epithelial-mesenchymal transition and metastasis via the mitochondrial calcium dependent ROS/Nrf2/Notch pathway in hepatocellular carcinoma.
The survival advantage conferred by MCUR1-mediated mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake was majorly caused by elevated production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and subsequent AKT/MDM2- induced P53 degradation.

Data suggest that MCU regulator (EMRE) might be a structural factor for opening of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU)-forming pore.

CCDC90A is not directly implicated in MCU function, and that the Ca2+ uptake defect associated with loss of CCDC90A function is likely secondary to the respiratory chain deficiency.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
