Mitochondrial pyruvate carrier 2  (MPC2) also known as brain protein 44  (BRP44) is a protein  that in humans is encoded by the MPC2  gene .[ 5] [ 6] [ 7] protein family .[ 8] pyruvate  across the inner membrane of mitochondria  in preparation for the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction .[ 9]

Clinical significance [ edit ] Mutations in the MPC2 gene cause an autosomal recessive disease comparable to the symptoms of Mitochondrial pyruvate carrier deficiency  (MPC1 gene).[ 10] [ 10]
