MOT4_HUMAN (UniProt)

Gene names: SLC16A3, MCT4
Protein names and data: MOT4_HUMAN, Full=Monocarboxylate transporter 4;Short=MCT 4, Full=Solute carrier family 16 member 3; Length: 465 a.a., Mass: 49469 Da,

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 specificity: Highly expressed in skeletal muscle
