Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
This gene encodes a transmembrane transporter that likely plays a role in monocarboxylic acid transport. A mutation in this gene has been associated with juvenile cataracts with microcornea and renal glucosuria. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

UniProt ID Q6ZSM3
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
