Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables symporter activity. Predicted to be involved in plasma membrane lactate transport and pyruvate transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; basolateral plasma membrane; and hippocampal mossy fiber to CA3 synapse. 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).
