===General information===
 
-
 
-
Ucp1 is a gene which encodes for UCP1 protein.
 
-
 
-
The uncoupling protein UCP1 is a proton carrier characteristic of brown adipose tissue.
 
-
UCP1 uncouples the respiratory chain  of ATP production, converting the metabolic energy in heat.

-
UCP1 is a 33kd protein which is  exclusively located in the brown adipocites. 
 
-
It is an  integral protein present in inner mitocondrial membrane.
 
-
 
-
The protein has a tripartite structure. The structure displays an around 100 residues region  which  is three times repeated. Each part encodes for two transmembrane segments and one long hydrophilic loop.The functional carrier unit is an homodimer.

-
The main  difference between UCP1 and  most of the proteins with a nuclear codification is  the    lack of the importation targeting to the mitochondria in UCP+ proteins.
 
-
The condition that determines the mitochondria as the protein target lays in the first loop which protudes in the mitochondrial matrix.
 
-
 
-
The second loop of the matrix is essential for the insertion of the protein in the inner mitochondrial matrix.
 
-
Purine nucleotides act as  inhibitors of protein activity and  esterificated fatty acids act as  inductors.

==UCP 175 deleted==
 
-
 
-
 
-
 
-
The uncoupling protein UCP 175 deleted is a proton carrier which is obtaines from the direct mugenesis  of the Ucp1 gene.
 
-
Ucp 175 has a deletion in the triplet the encodes for the Glycine 175.
 
-
The mutant shows a generation time and an heat up capacity higher than UCP1.
 
-
UCP 175 deleted  uncouples the respiratory chain  of ATP production, converting the metabolic energy in heat.
