Monocarboxylate transporters,[1] or MCTs, constitute a family of proton-linked plasma membrane transporters that carry molecules having one carboxylate group (monocarboxylates), such as lactate and pyruvate.

Chemical equation

Lactate_{in} \rightleftharpoons Lactate_{out}

Rate equation

Reversible Michaelis-Menten rate law is used

\frac{V_{f}\frac{[Lactate_{in}]}{Km_{Lactate_{in}}}}{}
