Gene information for SLC25A21 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID89874
Official gene symbolSLC25A21
Full namesolute carrier family 25 (mitochondrial oxodicarboxylate carrier), member 21
Aliases,MGC126570,ODC,ODC1,
Gene summarySLC25A21 is a homolog of the S. cerevisiae ODC proteins, mitochondrial carriers that transport C5-C7 oxodicarboxylates across inner mitochondrial membranes. One of the species transported by ODC is 2-oxoadipate, a common intermediate in the catabolism of lysine, tryptophan, and hydroxylysine in mammals. Within mitochondria, 2-oxoadipate is converted into acetyl-CoA.[supplied by OMIM]
