Solute carrier family 16, member 1 (monocarboxylic acid transporter 1)
The Gene SLC16A1 encodes a proton-linked monocarboxylate transporter that catalyzes the movement of many monocarboxylates, such as lactate and pyruvate, across the plasma membrane. Loss-of-function mutations are associated with autosomal dominant erythrocyte lactate transporter defect that shows decreased erythrocyte lactate clearance. Grain-of-function mutations located in the promotor enhance transcription and the amount of mature transporters which results in autosomal dominant hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia type 7.
