Summary
Predicted to enable lactate transmembrane transporter activity and pyruvate transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in plasma membrane lactate transport and pyruvate transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm; nucleoplasm; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; integumental system; and nervous system. Orthologous to human SLC16A7 (solute carrier family 16 member 7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
