    text
  • essential component of the shuttle system which transports acetyl-CoA from mitochondria to the cytosol where lipogenesis occurs
  • basic FUNCTION
  • involved in the citrate H+ /malate exchange, important for the bioenergetics of hepatic cells
  • plays a regulatory role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion
  • having a role in the regulation of chromosome integrity
  • required to prevent chromosome breaks (link between citrate metabolism, chromatin acetylation and chromosome integrity)
  • catalyses the efflux of citrate from the mitochondrial matrix in exchange for cytosolic malate
  • has a critical role in inflammation
  • works with other factors in the regulation of sperm energy metabolism to sustain capacitation process and acrosome reaction
  • maintains mitochondrial homeostasis in metabolically active, high proliferating tissues

    REGULATION
    repressed by ZNF224
    Other methylation, histone acetylation and Sp1 are important in the transcriptional regulation of the SLC25A1 proximal promoter
    regulated by SREBF1, a transcription factor that controls the expression of several lipogenic genes
