Immunohistochemical analysis of 4% PFA-fixed, 0.2% Triton X-100 permeabilized frozen sectioned mouse brown fat tissue labeling UCP1 (Alexa Fluor® 647) with ab225489 at 1/100 dilution (red). Cytoplasmic staining in mouse brown fat tissue is observed. The nuclear counter stain is DAPI (blue).

Negative control : Used PBS instead of primary antibody.

Heat mediated antigen retrieval using sodium citrate buffer (10 mM citrate pH 6.0 + 0.05% Tween-20).

Supplementary information

Uncoupling Protein 1 (UCP1) also known as thermogenin is an important protein found in the mitochondria of brown adipose tissue (BAT). It has a molecular mass of approximately 33 kDa. UCP1 functions as a mitochondrial carrier specifically involved in the process of proton transport across the inner mitochondrial membrane. It leads to the dissipation of the proton gradient producing heat instead of ATP. This process is called non-shivering thermogenesis. UCP1 is mainly expressed in brown adipose tissue an area important for heat production in mammals.
Biological function summary

UCP1 plays an essential role in energy metabolism by activating thermogenesis in brown adipocytes. It does not form a larger multi-protein complex but acts as an independent protein facilitating a significant amount of heat production. By uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation UCP1 controls energy expenditure and is central to maintaining body temperature in cold environments. Its function regulates metabolic rate and prevents excess fat accumulation connecting with mechanisms involved in energy balance.

Pathways

UCP1 is an integral component of the metabolic pathway for thermogenesis. The PPAR signaling pathway regulates its expression emphasizing its role in energy homeostasis. Additionally UCP1 interacts with proteins like PGC-1α an important regulator of energy metabolism and mitochondrial biogenesis. This interaction highlights UCP1's involvement in mitochondrial activity and adaptation to changes in temperature or diet linking it to important metabolic functions.

UCP1 has been connected with obesity and metabolic syndrome. Its dysregulation can lead to impaired thermogenic responses and reduced metabolic rate contributing to metabolic disorders. UCP1 is related to leptin a protein that regulates appetite and energy balance which is impacted in cases of obesity. Understanding this relationship helps in exploring potential therapeutic targets for tackling obesity and related metabolic diseases by modulating UCP1 activity.

Target data

Mitochondrial transporter that functions as a long-chain fatty acid/LCFA and proton symporter, simultaneously transporting one LCFA and one proton through the inner mitochondrial membrane. However, LCFAs remaining associated with the transporter via their hydrophobic tails, it results in an apparent transport of protons activated by LCFAs. Thereby, dissipates the mitochondrial proton gradient and converts the energy of substrate oxydation into heat instead of ATP (PubMed : 23063128). Responsible for thermogenic respiration, a specialized capacity of brown adipose tissue and beige fat that participates in non-shivering adaptive thermogenesis to temperature and diet variations and more generally to the regulation of energy balance (PubMed : 19187776, PubMed : 23063128, PubMed : 27027295, PubMed : 9139827). Regulates the production of reactive oxygen species/ROS by mitochondria (PubMed : 20416274, PubMed : 20466728).
