Mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCP) are members of the family of mitochondrial anion carrier proteins (MACP). UCPs separate oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis with energy dissipated as heat, also referred to as the mitochondrial proton leak. UCPs facilitate the transfer of anions from the inner to the outer mitochondrial membrane and the return transfer of protons from the outer to the inner mitochondrial membrane. They also reduce the mitochondrial membrane potential in mammalian cells. Tissue specificity occurs for the different UCPs and the exact methods of how UCPs transfer H+/OH- are not known. UCPs contain the three homologous protein domains of MACPs. This gene is expressed only in brown adipose tissue, a specialized tissue which functions to produce heat. (provided by RefSeq)

Increasing brown adipose tissue (BAT) activity is regarded as a potential treatment of obese, hyperglycemic patients with metabolic syndrome. Triiodothyronine (T3) is known to stimulate BAT activity by increasing mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1 (Ucp1) gene transcription, leading to increased thermogenesis
International journal of molecular sciences, 23(9) (2022-05-15)
Beige adipocytes with thermogenic function are activated during cold exposure in white adipose tissue through the process of browning. These cells, similar to brown adipocytes, dissipate stored chemical energy in the form of heat with the help of uncoupling protein
