PCR was used to amplify the coding region of CHO MCT1 cDNA. This was t
hen used to screen a rat skeletal muscle cDNA library which lead to th
e isolation of a full length cDNA encoding MCT1 from rat. The cDNA der
ived amino acid sequence shows 94% and 86% identity to CHO and human M
CT1, respectively.
