CC -!- FUNCTION: UCP are mitochondrial transporter proteins that create proton
CC leaks across the inner mitochondrial membrane, thus uncoupling
CC oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis. As a result, energy is
CC dissipated in the form of heat.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Acts as a dimer forming a proton channel. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- INTERACTION:
CC P55851; P60409: KRTAP10-7; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-2842077, EBI-10172290;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Mitochondrion inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane
CC protein.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed in adult human tissues, including
CC tissues rich in macrophages. Most expressed in white adipose tissue and
CC skeletal muscle.
CC -!- POLYMORPHISM: Genetic variations in UCP2 define the body mass index
CC quantitative trait locus 4 (BMIQ4) [MIM:607447]. A common polymorphism
CC in the promoter of UCP2 has been shown to be associated with a
CC decreased risk of obesity in middle-aged individuals.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the mitochondrial carrier (TC 2.A.29) family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
