Monocarboxylate/proton symporter of the plasma membrane; transport activity is dependent on the pH gradient across the membrane; mediates high-affinity uptake of carbon sources lactate, pyuvate, and acetate, and also of the micronutrient selenite, whose structure mimics that of monocarboxylates; expression and localization are tightly regulated, with transcription repression, mRNA degradation, and protein endocytosis and degradation all occurring in the presence of glucose [Source:SGD;Acc:S000001700]
