Function
- catalyzes the exchange of ADP & ATP across the mitochondrial inner membrane
- interacts with HIV-1 Vpr
Structure
- homodimer
- contains 3 solcar repeats
- the transmembrane helices are not perpendicular to the plane of the membrane, but cross the membrane at an angle
- odd-numbered transmembrane helices exhibit a sharp kink, due to the presence of a conserved proline residue (putative)
Compartment
mitochondrial inner membrane
