[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FLVC2_HUMAN FLVC2_HUMAN] Putative heme b importer/sensor involved in heme homeostasis in response to the metabolic state of the cell and to diet. May act as a sensor of cytosolic and/or mitochondrial heme levels to regulate mitochondrial respiration processes, ATP synthesis and thermogenesis. At low heme levels, interacts with components of electron transfer chain (ETC) complexes and ATP2A2, leading to ubiquitin-mediated degradation of ATP2A2 and inhibition of thermogenesis. Upon heme binding, dissociates from ETC complexes to allow switching from mitochondrial ATP synthesis to thermogenesis. Alternatively, in coordination with ATP2A2 may mediate calcium transport and signaling in response to heme.<ref>PMID:20823265</ref> <ref>PMID:32973183</ref> | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FLVC2_HUMAN FLVC2_HUMAN] Putative heme b importer/sensor involved in heme homeostasis in response to the metabolic state of the cell and to diet.

| + | Human feline leukaemia virus subgroup C receptor-related proteins 1 and 2 (FLVCR1 and FLVCR2) are members of the major facilitator superfamily(1). Their dysfunction is linked to several clinical disorders, including PCARP, HSAN and Fowler syndrome(2-7). Earlier studies concluded that FLVCR1 may function as a haem exporter(8-12), whereas FLVCR2 was suggested to act as a haem importer(13), yet conclusive biochemical and detailed molecular evidence remained elusive for the function of both transporters(14-16). Here, we show that FLVCR1 and FLVCR2 facilitate the transport of choline and ethanolamine across the plasma membrane, using a concentration-driven substrate translocation process. Through structural and computational analyses, we have identified distinct conformational states of FLVCRs and unravelled the coordination chemistry underlying their substrate interactions. Fully conserved tryptophan and tyrosine residues form the binding pocket of both transporters and confer selectivity for choline and ethanolamine through cation-pi interactions. Our findings clarify the mechanisms of choline and ethanolamine transport by FLVCR1 and FLVCR2, enhance our comprehension of disease-associated mutations that interfere with these vital processes and shed light on the conformational dynamics of these major facilitator superfamily proteins during the transport cycle. | ||
