0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. Monocarboxylate transporter 5, also called Solute carrier family 16 member 4 or MCT5, is a protein that in humans is encodes by the SLC16A4 gene. This gene is mapped to 1p13.3. It acts as the proton-linked monocarboxylate transporter. This gene 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. Protein 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.
