Epistasis-driven identification of SLC25A51 as a regulator of human mitochondrial NAD import

Abstract: About a thousand genes in the human genome encode for membrane transporters. Among these, several solute carrier proteins (SLCs), representing the largest group of transporters, are still orphan and lack functional characterization. We reasoned that assessing genetic interactions among SLCs may be an efficient way to obtain functional information allowing their deorphanization. Here we describe a network of strong genetic interactions indicating a contribution to mitochondrial respiration and redox metabolism … Show more

“…As clear evidences for the existence of a mitochondrial NAD + transporter were missing, nuclear/cytoplasmic and mitochondrial NAD + pools were considered to not be exchangeable [ 70 ]. The recent identification of the NAD + transporter SLC25A51 that localizes to the mitochondrial inner membrane has, however, demonstrated that a direct NAD + exchange between mitochondria and the cytoplasm is possible and potentially physiologically relevant for cells [ 71 , 72 , 73 ].…”

“…MAS is responsible for transferring electrons from cytosolic NADH to mitochondrial NADH, as reducing equivalents (e.g., NAD(P)H) cannot directly cross the inner mitochondrial membrane. However, recent studies identified that SLC25A51 and SLC25A52 facilitate mitochondrial NAD + transport [ 62 , 63 , 64 ]. Subsequent activity of the MAS and/or UCP2 is required to export aspartate into the cytosol where it can be used as a proteinogenic source and/or a precursor for arginine and asparagine synthesis [ 65 , 66 ].…”

“…Cytosolic and mitochondrial amino acid exchange facilitated by mitochondrial transporters is critical for redox shuttle activity (e.g., MAS, FOCM). With the recent identification of key mitochondrial transporters required for amino acid and NAD+ exchange, including SLC25A51 and SLC25A52, we now have the tools necessary to dissect how amino acid redox shuttle activity and/or direct NAD + import influence compartmentalized redox homeostasis [ 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 209 , 211 ]. Several amino acid transporters are not yet known, including those for asparagine, tryptophan, alanine, methionine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, cysteine, and proline [ 206 ].…”

“…This database is popular for describing detailed data on the functional family, endogenous substances, tissue differential distribution (Figure 2 and Table 3). Due to its specific scope of describing the SLC transporter family, it has been frequently used to facilitate SLC-related studies (Girardi et al, 2020 2, it provides the functional family, organism-specific abundance, tissue-differential distribution of transporters, together with the scRNA sequencing atlas (described in Table 3).…”
