ID: adenine-nucleotide-translocator

Adenine nucleotide translocator by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-20 Updated 2026-11-05
A carrier exchanging adenine nucleotides across the inner mitochondrial membrane, supplying matrix ADP and exporting synthesized ATP during ordinary oxidative phosphorylation.
A single transmembrane protein that moves ATP out and ADP in of the mitochondrion. So crucial.
Present in chormosome 4.

Good video showing what appears to be the adenine nucleotide translocator. although they don't use that name, instead saying ADP/ATP carrier.
The video also briefly depicts the ATP synthase and the mitochondrial phosphate carrier protein.
