Metabolic disorders, including obesity and metabolic-associated steatohepatitis, arise from a chronic energy surplus. Thus, enhancing energy dissipation through increased respiration holds significant therapeutic potential for metabolic disorders. Through a comprehensive analysis of human and murine adipose tissues, along with a functional screen, we identify mitochondrial carrier homolog 2, a mitochondrial outer membrane protein, as a pivotal regulator of mitochondrial metabolism. Intriguingly, its expression in adipose tissue is a strong determinant of obesity in humans. Adipocyte-specific ablation of mitochondrial carrier homolog 2 improves mitochondrial function and whole-body energy expenditure, independent of uncoupling protein 1. Furthermore, mitochondrial carrier homolog 2 regulates mitochondrial influx of free fatty acids by modulating the sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 to malonyl-CoA through direct physical interaction, leading to enhanced energy expenditure in adipocytes/adipose tissue. Here we show mitochondrial carrier homolog 2 functions as a negative regulator of energy metabolism in adipocytes and represents a potential target for treating obesity and related metabolic disorders.
