Effects of UCP3 genotype, temperature and muscle type on energy turnover of resting mouse skeletal muscle.

Pflugers Archiv : European journal of physiology - 1 Feb 2009

Barclay C J, Woledge R C, Curtin N A

Abstract excerpt

Uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3) is a mitochondrial transporter protein which, when over-expressed in mice, is associated with increased metabolic rate, increased feeding and low body weight. This phenotype probably reflects the increased levels of UCP3 partially uncoupling mitochondrial respiration from cellular ATP demands. Consistent with that, mitochondria isolated from muscles of mice that over-express UCP3 are...
