Description
The protein encoded by this gene is part of an MPC1/MPC2 heterodimer that is responsible for transporting pyruvate into mitochondria. The encoded protein is found in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Defects in this gene are a cause of mitochondrial pyruvate carrier deficiency. Several transcript variants, some protein coding and one non-protein coding, have been found for this gene.

- Species: Human
- Recombinant: Yes
Human Diseases
- Lung Adenocarcinoma: Low expression of MPC1 is associated with poor prognosis and increased tumor progression. It interacts with mitochondrial STAT3, inhibiting its phosphorylation, which is linked to reduced malignancy in lung cancer cells.
- Colon Cancer: MPC1 deficiency promotes aerobic glycolysis and malignant progression.
- Prostate Cancer: Decreased MPC1 levels correlate with poor patient outcomes.
Cellular Signaling Pathways
- STAT3 Pathway: MPC1 interacts with mito-STAT3, disrupting its distribution and reducing cytoplasmic STAT3 activation, which plays a critical role in tumor progression.
- Glycolytic Pathway: Involved in the regulation of pyruvate transport into mitochondria, affecting cellular metabolism and energy production.
- T Cell Development Pathways: Essential for normal thymic development of T cells, influencing immune responses.
