Description

The MCUR1 (mitochondrial calcium uniporter regulator 1) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 6.

MCUR1 is a key regulator of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU), essential for calcium entry into mitochondria. It directly interacts with MCU, facilitating uniporter-mediated calcium uptake. MCUR1 is likely involved in assembling the membrane components of the uniporter complex (uniplex).

MCUR1 is also known as C6orf79, CCDC90A, FMP32.
