Within insulin-responsive tissues such as muscle and fat, Glut1 contributes to basal glucose uptake while Glut4 is responsible for insulin-stimulated glucose transport (1-3). Glut4 is a 12-transmembrane domain protein that facilitates glucose transport in the direction of the glucose gradient. This transporter localizes to intracellular organelles (endosomes) in unstimulated cells and translocates to the cell surface following insulin stimulation (1,2,4). Translocation of Glut4 is dependent on Akt, which may act by phosphorylating AS160, a RabGAP protein involved in membrane trafficking (5).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nGlucose transporter type 4, insulin-responsive; GLUT-4; GLUT4; GTR4; insulin-responsive glucose transporter type 4; SLC2A4; solute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter), member 4; solute carrier family 2 member 4; Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 4\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 50\nSource\/Isotype: Mouse IgG1","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797660160169,"sku":"2213T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-2213t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
