Protein
Mitochondrial carnitine/acylcarnitine carrier-like protein
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
Involved in photorespiratory metabolism. Acts probably as a carrier for a glycine decarboxylase (GDC) cofactor or, alternatively, may act as a mitochondrial glycine shuttle. Involved in the transition from the embryonic stage to the juvenile autotrophic stage.
Similarity
Belongs to the mitochondrial carrier (TC 2.A.29) family.
