Summary: Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and pyruvate transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in mitochondrial pyruvate transmembrane transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within acetyl-CoA biosynthetic process from pyruvate and positive regulation of insulin secretion involved in cellular response to glucose stimulus. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Predicted to be active in mitochondrial inner membrane. Orthologous to human MPC2 (mitochondrial pyruvate carrier 2).

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.
