Human Gene SLC25A21 (ENST00000331299.6) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens solute carrier family 25 member 21 (SLC25A21), transcript variant 1, mRNA; nuclear gene for mitochondrial product. (from RefSeq NM_030631) RefSeq Summary (NM_030631): SLC25A21 is a homolog of the S. cerevisiae ODC proteins, mitochondrial carriers that transport C5-C7 oxodicarboxylates across inner mitochondrial membranes. One of the species transported by ODC is 2-oxoadipate, a common intermediate in the catabolism of lysine, tryptophan, and hydroxylysine in mammals. Within mitochondria, 2-oxoadipate is converted into acetyl-CoA.[supplied by OMIM, Apr 2004]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000331299.6 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000183032.12 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr14:36,677,921-37,172,606 Size: 494,686 Total Exon Count: 10 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg38 chr14:36,680,658-37,172,350 Size: 491,693 Coding Exon Count: 10
ID:ODC_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Mitochondrial 2-oxodicarboxylate carrier; AltName: Full=Solute carrier family 25 member 21; FUNCTION: Transports C5-C7 oxodicarboxylates across the inner membranes of mitochondria. Can transport 2-oxoadipate, 2- oxoglutarate, adipate, glutarate, and to a lesser extent, pimelate, 2-oxopimelate, 2-aminoadipate, oxaloacetate, and citrate. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Mitochondrion inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitous. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the mitochondrial carrier family. SIMILARITY: Contains 3 Solcar repeats.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
