MOT6_HUMAN (UniProt)

Gene names: SLC16A5, MCT5, MCT6
Protein names and data: MOT6_HUMAN, Full=Monocarboxylate transporter 6;Short=MCT 6, Full=Monocarboxylate transporter 5;Short=MCT 5;Full=Solute carrier family 16 member 5; Length: 505 a.a., Mass: 54994 Da,
fasta formatted sequence

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 kidney
