2.A.29.24.1
Brain mitochondrial carrier protein 1, BMCP1 (participates in mitochondrial proton leak) (also called uncoupling protein-5 (UCP5)) (Sanchis et al., 1998).  Transports protons and chloride ions; activated by fatty acids and inhibited by purine nucleotides similarly to UCP1-3 (Hoang et al. 2012); H+ transport may be activated while Cl- transport may be inhibited by faty acids (Hoang et al. 2015). Unc5 also transports sulfur anions (sulfate, sulfite, thiosulfate), inorganic phosphate, dicarboxylates (malonate, malate, citamalate, aspartate, gultamate) and tricarboxylates (Gorgoglione et al. 2019). It catalyzes fast anion:anion exchange and slow uniport. Sulfate and thiosulfate are the most high affinity substrates (Gorgoglione et al. 2019).
