Function
MCU_DICDI Mitochondrial inner membrane calcium uniporter that mediates calcium uptake into mitochondria (PubMed:24889638). Constitutes a pore-forming and calcium-conducting subunit (PubMed:24889638). Mitochondrial calcium homeostasis plays key roles in cellular physiology and regulates cell bioenergetics, cytoplasmic calcium signals and activation of cell death pathways.[UniProtKB:Q8NE86][1]
