Monocarboxylate transporter 10

Monocarboxylate transporter 10 (MCT 10), also known as aromatic amino acid transporter 1 and T-type amino acid transporter 1 (TAT1) and solute carrier family 16 member 10 (SLC16A10), is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC16A10 is_associated_with::gene. SLC16A10 is a member of the is_associated_with::solute carrier family.

Function
SLC16A10 mediates Na+-independent transport of is_associated_with::tryptophan, is_associated_with::tyrosine, is_associated_with::phenylalanine, and is_associated_with::L-DOPA.
