Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the binding affinities of Basigin gene products and neural cell adhesion molecule L1cam for monocarboxylate transporter-1 (MCT1). ELISA binding assays were performed in which recombinant proteins of the transmembrane domains of Basigin gene products and L1cam were incubated with MCT1 captured from mouse brain. It was determined that Basigin gene products bind MCT1 with moderate affinity, but L1cam does not bind MCT1. Despite a high degree of sequence conservation between Basigin gene products and L1cam, the sequences are different enough to prevent L1cam from interacting with MCT1.
