Monocarboxylates, such as lactate and pyruvate, play an integral role in cellular metabolism.
Lactic acid is produced in large quantities as a result of glycolysis, which provides the majority of ATP to cells under normal physiological conditions.
However, accumulation of lactic acid leads to a decrease in intracellular pH and cessation of glycolysis.
In order for glycolysis to continue at a high rate, lactic acid must be transported out of the cell.
This transport process is carried out by a family of monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs), which function as proton symports and are stereoselective for L-lactate.
The MCT family consists of at least eight members, MCT1-8, which contain between 10-12 transmembrane-helical (TM) domains, with the amino and carboxy termini located in the cytoplasm.
MCT6 is highly expressed in the kidneys and is thought to have a specificity for bumetanide, a loop diuretic involved in the treatment of edema.
The high substrate specificity of MCT6 suggests a possible role in therapeutic drug transport and trafficking across the plasma membrane.
