Gene: MCU

Alternate names for this Gene: C10orf42|CCDC109A|HsMCU

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a calcium transporter that localizes to the mitochondrial inner membrane. The encoded protein interacts with mitochondrial calcium uptake 1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 10

Location in Chromosome : 10q22.1

Description of this Gene: mitochondrial calcium uniporter

Type of Gene: protein-coding
