Monocarboxylate transporter 4 (MCT4) also known as solute carrier family 16 member 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC16A3 gene.[5][6]

pyruvate may be especially significant as this avoids loss of pyruvate from the cell which, were it to occur, would prevent removal of the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide
(NADH) produced in glycolysis by reduction of pyruvate to lactate.

MCT4 can be upregulated by HIF-1α and AMPK.[7]
