SLC16A4 (MCT4, MCT5, MCT 4, MCT 5, Monocarboxylate transporter 5, Solute carrier family 16 member 4, solute carrier family 16 (monocarboxylic acid transporters), member 4)

Monocarboxylate transporter 5, also called Solute carrier family 16 member 4 or MCT4, 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.\n\nUniProt Number:\nO15374\n\nGene ID:\nSLC16A4\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin).\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nStorage and Handling:\nStore at -20?C for one year. After reconstitution, store at 4?C for one month. Can also be aliquoted and stored frozen at -20?C for long term.\nAvoid repeated freezing and thawing. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
