Difference between Lactic acid and Monocarboxylate transporter

Lactic acid vs. Monocarboxylate transporter

Lactic acid is an organic compound with the formula CH3CH(OH)COOH. The monocarboxylate transporters, or MCTs, are a family of proton-linked plasma membrane transporters that carry molecules having one carboxylate group (monocarboxylates), such as lactate and pyruvate, across biological membranes.

Similarities between Lactic acid and Monocarboxylate transporter

Lactic acid and Monocarboxylate transporter have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cori cycle, Lactate dehydrogenase, Monocarboxylate transporter 1, Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, Pyruvic acid, Redox.

Cori cycle

The Cori cycle (also known as the Lactic acid cycle), named after its discoverers, Carl Ferdinand Cori and Gerty Cori, refers to the metabolic pathway in which lactate produced by anaerobic glycolysis in the muscles moves to the liver and is converted to glucose, which then returns to the muscles and is metabolized back to lactate.

Lactate dehydrogenase

Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH or LD) is an enzyme found in nearly all living cells (animals, plants, and prokaryotes).

Monocarboxylate transporter 1

Monocarboxylate transporter 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC16A1 gene (also known as MCT1).

Pyruvic acid

Pyruvic acid (CH3COCOOH) is the simplest of the alpha-keto acids, with a carboxylic acid and a ketone functional group.
