Target/Specificity | This SLC5A12 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 576-605 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human SLC5A12. |
Dilution | WB~~1:2000 IHC-P~~1:50~100 FC~~1:10~50 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | SLC5A12 Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | SLC5A12 (HGNC:28750) |

Synonyms | SMCT2 |
Function | Acts as an electroneutral and low-affinity sodium (Na(+))- dependent sodium-coupled solute transporter (PubMed:17692818). Catalyzes the transport across the plasma membrane of many monocarboxylates such as lactate, pyruvate, nicotinate, propionate, butyrate and beta-D-hydroxybutyrate (By similarity). May be responsible for the first step of reabsorption of monocarboxylates from the lumen of the proximal tubule of the kidney and the small intestine. May play also a role in monocarboxylates transport in the retina (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Apical cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Detected at the brush border membrane of the kidney. Colocalizes with viementin in Mueller cells {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q49B93} |

Background
Normal blood lactate is maintained at about 1.5 mM, and little filtered lactate is excreted in urine. Reabsorption of lactate is mediated by the low-affinity Na(+)-coupled lactate transporter SLC5A12 in the initial part of the proximal tubule and by the high-affinity Na(+)-coupled lactate transporter SLC5A8 (MIM 608044) in the distal proximal tubule (Gopal et al., 2007 [PubMed 17692818]).
