| basic FUNCTION
| acting as a sodium/glucose cotransporter |
|
mediates Na(+)-coupled transport of lactate, pyruvate and nicotinate (Gopal 2007) |
|
low-affinity transporter initiating lactate absorption in the early parts of the proximal tubule (Gopal 2007) |
|
play a differential role in monocarboxylate transport in the retina in a cell type-specific manner |
|
in the kidney is likely to mediate the reabsorption of lactate and in the intestinal tract (in the proximal parts), mediate the absorption of diet-derived short-chain monocarboxylates |
