== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: N/A
* **UniProt Summary**: Acts as an electrogenic sodium (Na(+)) and chloride (Cl-)-dependent sodium-coupled solute transporter, including transport of monocarboxylates (short-chain fatty acids including L-lactate, D-lactate, pyruvate, acetate, propionate, valerate and butyrate), lactate, mocarboxylate drugs (nicotinate, benzoate, salicylate and 5-aminosalicylate) and ketone bodies (beta-D- hydroxybutyrate, acetoacetate and alpha-ketoisocaproate), with a Na(+):substrate stoichiometry of between 4:1 and 2:1. Catalyzes passive carrier mediated diffusion of iodide. Mediates iodide transport from the thyrocyte into the colloid lumen through the apical membrane. May be responsible for the absorption of D- lactate and monocarboxylate drugs from the intestinal tract. Acts as a tumor suppressor, suppressing colony formation in colon cancer, prostate cancer and glioma cell lines. May play a critical role in the entry of L-lactate and ketone bodies into neurons by a process driven by an electrochemical Na(+) gradient and hence contribute to the maintenance of the energy status and function of neurons. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12107270, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12829793, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14966140, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15090606, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15361710, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15867356, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16729224, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16805814, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17178845, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17245649, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18037591}.
