2.A.1.13.14
Solute carrier family 16, member 12, SLC16A12, or monocarboxylic acid transporter 12; MCT12. Facilitative monocarboxylate transporter that mediates creatine transport across the plasma membrane (Abplanalp et al. 2013; Takahashi et al. 2020). It is the cataract and glucosuria associated monocarboxylate transporter.
