basic FUNCTION
| calcium-dependent mitochondrial solute carrier |
|
erythroid specific mitochondrial carrier, important for the biosynthesis of heme in eukaryotes (Guernsey 2009) |
|
may be facilitates ALA production by importing glycine into mitochondria or by exchanging glycine for ALA across the mitochondrial inner membrane (Guernsey 2009) |
|
is a pro-apoptotic protein, which regulates intrinsic caspase-dependent apoptosis |
|
main mitochondrial glycine transporters required for heme synthesis |
|
mitochondrial glycine transporter that provides substrate to initiate heme/hemoglobin synthesis |
