MOLECULAR IDENTIFICATION AND MESSENGER RNA LEVELS OF A MONOCARBOXYLATE TRANSPORTER (MCT) IN FUNDULUS HETEROCLITUS, A HYPOXIA TOLERANT TELEOST FISH

Monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs) are bi-directional symporters that couple proton movement to a variety of glycolytic metabolites, including lactate and pyruvate. As such, MCTs not only play a crucial role in pH regulation, but could also function in the distribution of substrates between organe...
