Protein name Monocarboxylate transporter 12 (MCT 12) (Creatine transporter 2) (CRT2) (Solute carrier family 16 member 12)
Protein function Functions as a transporter for creatine and as well for its precursor guanidinoacetate. Transport of creatine and GAA is independent of resting membrane potential and extracellular Na(+), Cl(-), or pH. Contributes to the process of creatine bios
