Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 7350
Gene name Uncoupling protein 1
Gene symbol UCP1
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
SLC25A7UCP
Chromosome 4
Chromosome location 4q31.1
Summary Mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCP) are members of the 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.
