This protein has a mass of approximately 15 kDa. MPC1 is expressed in various tissues with high metabolic demand including the liver heart and muscle. These tissues rely on effective pyruvate metabolism for energy production which highlights MPC1’s importance in cellular respiration and metabolic processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nMPC1 forms an important component of the MPC complex functioning alongside MPC2 to enable pyruvate import into mitochondria where it aids in energy production through the Krebs cycle. This import is essential for maintaining the balance of cellular metabolism and supporting ATP generation. The MPC1 complex has garnered interest due to its involvement in mitochondrial function and energy homeostasis important for cellular metabolism.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nMPC1 involvement centers on the integration of glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle. This protein provides a critical link for pyruvate conversion into acetyl-CoA influencing oxidative phosphorylation. MPC1 connects with other proteins like MPC2 forming a critical transport system. Alteration in the activity of these pathways can impact cellular energy levels and metabolic homeostasis highlighting its relevance in intermediary metabolism.\u003cbr\u003e\nMutations or dysfunctions in MPC1 have been associated with metabolic syndromes such as lactic acidosis and diabetes. The aberrant function of MPC1 in these conditions disrupts normal pyruvate metabolism leading to metabolic imbalance. In relation to diabetes MPC1’s interplay with insulin signaling pathways draws attention to its indirect role in the development of insulin resistance further connecting it to disorders involving energy dysregulation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854096814249,"sku":"ab74871","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab74871","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
