2.A.29.8.11
Mitochondrial glutamate carrier protein YMC2, of 329 aas and 6 TMSs. Ymc2p transports glutamate, and to a much lesser extent L-homocysteinesulfinate, but not other amino acids and tested metabolites. Transport was saturable, inhibited by mercuric chloride and dependent on the proton gradient across the proteoliposomal membrane.  It transport glutamate across the mitochondrial inner membrane and thereby play a role in intermediary metabolism, C1 metabolism and mitochondrial protein synthesis (Porcelli et al. 2018).
