MPC1

FMP37, YGL080W
Highly conserved subunit of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier; a mitochondrial inner membrane complex comprised of Mpc1p and either Mpc2p or Mpc3p mediates mitochondrial pyruvate uptake; null mutant displays slow growth that is complemented by expression of human or mouse ortholog; mutation in human ortholog is associated with lactic acidosis and hyperpyruvatemia

MPC3

FMP43, YGR243W
Highly conserved subunit of mitochondrial pyruvate carrier; more highly expressed in glucose-containing minimal medium than in lactate-containing medium; expression regulated by osmotic and alkaline stresses; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; MPC3 has a paralog, MPC2, that arose from the whole genome duplication

Co-purification

An interaction is inferred from the identification of two or more protein subunits in a purified protein complex, as obtained by classical biochemical fractionation or affinity purification and one or more additional fractionation steps.

The mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC) is critical for cellular homeostasis, as it is required in central metabolism for transporting pyruvate from the cytosol into the mitochondrial matrix. MPC has been implicated in many diseases and is being investigated as a drug target. A few years ago, small membrane proteins, called MPC1 and MPC2 in mammals and Mpc1, Mpc2 and Mpc3 ... [more]

An interaction is inferred when a bait protein is affinity captured from cell extracts by either polyclonal antibody or epitope tag and the associated interaction partner is identified by mass spectrometric methods.

Affinity Capture-Western
Affinity Capture-Western

An interaction is inferred when a bait protein is affinity captured from cell extracts by either polyclonal antibody or epitope tag and the associated interaction partner identified by Western blot with a specific polyclonal antibody or second epitope tag. This category is also used if an interacting protein is visualized directly by dye stain or radioactivity. Note that this differs from any co-purification experiment involving affinity capture in that the co-purification experiment involves at least one extra purification step to get rid of potential contaminating proteins.
