General annotation (Comments)

Function

Very active and specific thyroid hormone transporter. Stimulates cellular uptake of thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3), reverse triiodothyronine (rT3) and diidothyronine. Does not transport Leu, Phe, Trp or Tyr By similarity.

Subunit structure

Homodimer By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Highly expressed in liver and kidney.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Monocarboxylate porter (TC 2.A.1.13) family. [View classification]
