Gene Information

human ... SLC16A3(9123)

Specificity

Recognizes human Monocarboxylate Transporter 4 (MCT4). The immunogen shows no significant sequence homology with other MCT. MCT4 is prominently expressed in skeletal muscle and other cells with high glycolytic rate such as tumors cells and white blood cells suggesting an important role in lactic acid efflux.

Note: According to new nomenclature, the old MCT3 has now been reclassified as MCT4. Consult Halestrap and Price (1999) Biochem. J. 343:281-299.

Immunogen

A 19 amino acid peptide sequence within the cytoplasmic domain #4 of human MCT4 (Wilson et al., 1998; Price et al., 1998).

Application

Anti-Monocarboxylate Transporter 4 Antibody detects level of Monocarboxylate Transporter 4 & has been published & validated for use in ELISA & WB.
