Antibody TypePolyclonal Antibody
Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThe SLC16A1 gene encodes a monocarboxylate transporter (MCT1) that mediates the movement of lactate and pyruvate across cell membranes Import and export of these substrates by tissues such as erythrocytes, muscle, intestine, and kidney are ascribed largely to the action of a proton-coupled MCT (Garcia et al., 1994 [PubMed 8124722]).[supplied by OMIM]

  • MGC44475
  • MCT1
UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P53985 # 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.
SIZE: 500 amino acids; 53958 Da
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed in normal and in cancer cells.
DISEASE: SwissProt: P53985 # Defects in SLC16A1 are the cause of symptomatic deficiency in lactate transport (SDLT) [MIM:245340]; also known as erythrocyte lactate transporter defect. Deficiency of lactate transporter may result in an acidic intracellular environment created by muscle activity with consequent degeneration of muscle and release of myoglobin and creatine kinase. This defect might compromise extreme performance in otherwise healthy individuals.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P53985 ## Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Monocarboxylate porter (TC 2.A.1.13) family.
