CAGL0H10538g

Gene
CAGL0H10538g
Protein
Mitochondrial glycine transporter
Organism
Candida glabrata (strain ATCC 2001 / CBS 138 / JCM 3761 / NBRC 0622 / NRRL Y-65)
Length
297 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.
Mass
