Abstract
This entry includes coiled-coil domain-containing proteins 90 (CCDC90) and related proteins. CCDC90A is a key regulator of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) and hence was renamed MCUR1 [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]. A study in mammals and in yeast homologue fmp32 has reported that MCUR1 is a cytochrome c oxidase assembly factor and that it has an indirect role as a regulator of MCU [ 4 ], however, subsequent publications confirmed the function of MCUR1 as a regulator of MCU [ 5 , 5 ]. The role of CCDC90B proteins is still not known.
