    basic FUNCTION
  • catalyzing the rapid transport across the plasma membrane of many monocarboxylates such as lactate, pyruvate, branched-chain oxo acids derivedfrom leucine, valine and isoleucine
  • involved in neurite outgrowth, early neuronal cell development, neuropeptide signaling/synthesis and neuronal receptor (Tondreau 2008)
  • CDH13, GRM8, ANK2, SLC16A6, ARSG, RIMBP2 and DCLK1 having role in hearing function
