Function

Calcium uptake protein 1 or Mitochondrial calcium uptake protein (MICU1) is essential in preventing mitochondrial Ca+2 overload[1]. For more details see Calcium uptake protein 1.

Mitochondrial Calcium uptake protein 2 (MICU2) behaves as an inhibitor of mitochondrial Ca+2 uniporter at low cystolic Ca+2[2].
Mitochondrial Calcium uptake protein 3 (MICU3), an EF-hand containing protein, behaves as an enhancer of mitochondrial Ca+2 uniporter-dependent mitochondrial Ca+2 uptake[3].

Disease

Mutations in MICU1 cause a brain and muscle disorder.

Structural highlights

MICU1 contains . A and a [4].
