[5] This gene encodes a member of the monocarboxylate transporter family and the major facilitator superfamily.

The encoded protein is localized to the cell membrane and acts as a proton-linked transporter of bumetanide.

Transport by the encoded protein is inhibited by four loop diuretics, nateglinide, thiazides, probenecid, and glibenclamide.

Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
