1.A.35.5.7
MRS2 (HPTm MRS2L) of 443 aas and 2 C-terminal TMSs. Implicated in mitochondrial Mg2+ homeostasis (Schäffers et al. 2018). The human MRS2 magnesium-binding domain is a regulatory feedback switch for channel activity (Uthayabalan et al. 2023). It is a magnesium (Mg2+) entry protein channel in mitochondria. Whereas MRS2 contains two transmembrane domains constituting a pore in the inner mitochondrial membrane, most of the protein resides within the matrix. This research exposes a mechanism for human MRS2 autoregulation by negative feedback from the NTD and identifies a novel gain of function mutant (Uthayabalan et al. 2023).
