Gene
PTRG_00728
Protein
Mitochondrial glycine transporter
Organism
Pyrenophora tritici-repentis (strain Pt-1C-BFP)
Length
318 amino acids
Function
Mitochondrial glycine transporter that imports glycine into the mitochondrial matrix. Plays an important role in providing glycine for the first enzymatic step in heme biosynthesis, the condensation of glycine with succinyl-CoA to produce 5-aminolevulinate (ALA) in the mitochondrial matrix.
Similarity
Belongs to the mitochondrial carrier (TC 2.A.29) family. SLC25A38 subfamily.
