1 Ucp3(-/-) mice had higher respiratory quotients than wild-type mice in fed resting states, indicating impaired fatty acid oxidation. Fatty Acids uncoupling protein 3 (mitochondrial, proton carrier) Mus musculus
2 Altogether, results show that the fasting-induced increases in Ucp2 and Ucp3 do not correlate with increased mitochondrial proton leak but support a role for UCP3 in fatty acid metabolism. Fatty Acids uncoupling protein 3 (mitochondrial, proton carrier) Mus musculus
