Background
Adenine nucleotide translocase 2 (ANT2/SLC25A5) is a member of the adenine nucleotide translocase family of mitochondrial inner membrane proteins that function differently in metabolic and apoptotic pathways. Research studies indicate that ANT2 expression in undifferentiated, proliferating cells correlates with the rate of glycolytic metabolism and may be an indicator of carcinogenesis. Suppression of ANT2/SLC25A5 expression by specific RNA interference in human breast cancer cells promotes apoptosis and inhibits tumor cell growth, which suggests a cytoprotective role of ANT2/SLC25A5.
