Synonyms | MCT4 |
Function | Proton-linked monocarboxylate transporter. Catalyzes the rapid transport across the plasma membrane of many monocarboxylates such as lactate, pyruvate, branched-chain oxo acids derived from leucine, valine and isoleucine, and the ketone bodies acetoacetate, beta-hydroxybutyrate and acetate (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. |
Tissue Location | Highly expressed in skeletal muscle. |

Background
Lactic acid and pyruvate transport across plasma membranesis catalyzed by members of the proton-linked monocarboxylatetransporter (MCT) family, which has been designated solute carrierfamily-16. Each MCT appears to have slightly different substrateand inhibitor specificities and transport kinetics, which arerelated to the metabolic requirements of the tissues in which it isfound. The MCTs, which include MCT1 (SLC16A1; MIM 600682) and MCT2(SLC16A7; MIM 603654), are characterized by 12 predictedtransmembrane domains (Price et al., 1998 [PubMed9425115]).
