Background: Glut4

Glucose Transporter GLUT4 (SLC2A4 or GLUT4) is an insulin-sensitive glucose transporter which facilitate insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in adipose tissue, skeletal muscle and cardiac tissues (that specifically express GLUT4). GLUT4 is a 12-transmembrane domain/ multi-pass membrane protein localized in endomembrane system as well as cytoplasm near perinuclear region, and facilitates glucose transport in the direction of glucose gradient. This transporter localizes to intracellular organelles (endosomes) in unstimulated cells and translocates to the cell surface following insulin stimulation via TBC1D4 phosphorylation. Transgenic mice lacking or overexpressing GLUT4 respectively decrease or increase whole-body insulin sensitivity, suggesting its role in maintenance of glucose homeostasis, and accordingly, under obesity conditions, reduction of GLUT4 gene expression is directly related to insulin resistance development. Inflammatory cytokines produced by the adipose tissue including TNF-alpha, IL-6 etc have been related to reduce GLUT4 expression and defective GLUT4 is an underlying cause of NIDDM.

Protocols

View specific protocols for Glut4 Antibody - BSA Free (NBP1-49533):

Protocol for Flow Cytometry Intracellular Staining
Sample Preparation.
1. Grow cells to 60-85% confluency. Flow cytometry requires between 2 x 105 and 1 x 106 cells for optimal performance.
2. If cells are adherent, harvest gently by washing once with staining buffer and then scraping. Avoid using trypsin as this can disrupt certain epitopes of interest. If enzymatic harvest is required, use Accutase, Collagenase, or TrypLE Express for a less damaging option.
3. Reserve 100 uL for counting, then transfer cell volume into a 50 mL conical tube and centrifuge for 8 minutes at 400 RCF.
a. Count cells using a hemocytometer and a 1:1 trypan blue exclusion stain to determine cell viability before starting the flow protocol. If cells appear blue, do not proceed.
4. Re-suspend cells to a concentration of 1 x 106 cells/mL in staining buffer (NBP2-26247).
5. Aliquot out 1 mL samples in accordance with your experimental samples.

Tip: When cell surface and intracellular staining are required in the same sample, it is advisable that the cell surface staining be performed first since the fixation and permeablization steps might reduce the availability of surface antigens.

Intracellular Staining.
Tip: When performing intracellular staining, it is important to use appropriate fixation and permeabilization reagents based upon the target and its subcellular location. Generally, our Intracellular Flow Assay Kit (NBP2-29450) is a good place to start as it contains an optimized combination of reagents for intracellular staining as well as an inhibitor of intracellular protein transport (necessary if staining secreted proteins). Certain targets may require more gentle or transient permeabilization protocols such as the commonly employed methanol or saponin-based methods.
Protocol for Cytoplasmic Targets:
Optional: Perform cell surface staining as described in the previous section.
1. Fix the cells by adding 100 uL fixation solution (such as 4% PFA) to each sample for 10-15 minutes.
2. Permeabilize cells by adding 100 uL of a permeabization buffer to every 1 x 106 cells present in the sample. Mix well and incubate at room temperature for 15 minutes.
a. For cytoplasmic targets, use a gentle permeabilization solution such as 1X PBS + 0.5% Saponin or 1X PBS + 0.5% Tween-20.
b. To maintain the permeabilized state throughout your experiment, use staining buffer + 0.1% of the permeabilization reagent (i.e. 0.1% Tween-20 or 0.1% Saponin).
3. Following the 15 minute incubation, add 2 mL of the staining buffer + 0.1% permeabilizer to each sample.
4. Centrifuge for 5 minutes at 400 RCF.
5. Discard supernatant and re-suspend in 1 mL of staining buffer + 0.1% permeabilizer.
6. Stain each sample at 1 uL/ 1 x 106 cells of primary antibody or 1-3 uL/ 1 x 106 cells for directly conjugated antibodies. Mix well and incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes- 1 hour. Gently mix samples every 10-15 minutes.
7. Following the primary/conjugate incubation, add 2 mL/sample of staining buffer +0.1% permeabilizer and centrifuge for 5 minutes at 400 RCF.
8. Remove supernatant and re-suspend each sample in 2 mL staining buffer + 0.1% permeabilizer, repeat wash for 5 minutes at 400 RCF.
9. If using a directly conjugated antibody, after the second wash, re-suspend cell pellet to a final volume of 500 uL per sample and proceed with flow analysis.

Immunocytochemistry Protocol

Culture cells to appropriate density in 35 mm culture dishes or 6-well plates.

1. Remove culture medium and wash the cells briefly in PBS. Add 10% formalin to the dish and fix at room temperature for 10 minutes.
2. Remove the formalin and wash the cells in PBS.
3. Permeablize the cells with 0.1% Triton X100 or other suitable detergent for 10 min.
4. Remove the permeablization buffer and wash three times for 10 minutes each in PBS. Be sure to not let the specimen dry out.
5. To block nonspecific antibody binding, incubate in 10% normal goat serum from 1 hour to overnight at room temperature.
6. Add primary antibody at appropriate dilution and incubate overnight at 4C.
7. Remove primary antibody and replace with PBS. Wash three times for 10 minutes each.
8. Add secondary antibody at appropriate dilution. Incubate for 1 hour at room temperature.
9. Remove secondary antibody and replace with PBS. Wash three times for 10 minutes each.
10. Counter stain DNA with DAPi if required.

  • Q: Regarding NBP1-49533AF647, Glut4-Alexa Fluor 647, the data sheet declares that the immunogen is aa480-509. Uniport says it’s a cytoplasmatic region of the protein. Is this antibody suitable for flow? Has it been validated for this application? Can you provide the suggested protocol, specifically the fixation and permeabilzation part? Any available references for this antibody and application?

    A: This antibody was validated in flow cytometry. We used our intracellular flow protocol found here. The results from this testing can be seen on the unconjugated part datasheet here

  • Q: Regarding the use of NBP1-49533, is this anti Glut4 Antibody validated for extracellular domain of Glut4 in for flow cytometry? The data sheet shows images if intracellular and additional images of flow images that are not specified. 

    A: NBP1-49533 is not specific for the extracellular domain of Glut4 becuase the immunogen of the antibody pertains to the cytoplasmic C-terminus of Glut4: Immunogen: A synthetic peptide made to a C-terminal portion of the human Glucose Transporter GLUT4 protein (between residues 480-509) [UniProt P14672]. Amino acids 480-509 correspond to the cytoplasmic tail of this protein, accordingly, NBP1-49533 has only been used for labeling the intracellular staining in FLOW cytometry.
    The only other option we have is MAB86541, which is made by our sister company R&D systems. They used their protocol for "Staining Membrane-associated Proteins" to product the Flow results, so if you have any other questions abotu this product I would contact them for the most accurate and proper information: https://www.rndsystems.com/resources/protocols/flow-cytometry-protocol-staining-membrane-associated-proteins-suspended-cells

    A: We highly appreciate your feedback on the immunogen info on the datasheet of our Glucose Transporter GLUT4 antibody #NBP1-49533, and yes, the immunogen sequence is from human Glucose Transporter GLUT4 protein between residues 480-509. Similarly, the sequence for Glucose Transporter GLUT4 Antibody [DyLight 550] (NBP1-49533R) would also be the same (between residues 480-509). It is certainly C-terminal region and we apologize for the mistake committed on our end about writing it as internal region.

  • Q: Regarding NBP1-49533AF647, Glut4-Alexa Fluor 647, the data sheet declares that the immunogen is aa480-509. Uniport says it’s a cytoplasmatic region of the protein. Is this antibody suitable for flow? Has it been validated for this application? Can you provide the suggested protocol, specifically the fixation and permeabilzation part? Any available references for this antibody and application?

    A: This antibody was validated in flow cytometry. We used our intracellular flow protocol found here. The results from this testing can be seen on the unconjugated part datasheet here

  • Q: Regarding the use of NBP1-49533, is this anti Glut4 Antibody validated for extracellular domain of Glut4 in for flow cytometry? The data sheet shows images if intracellular and additional images of flow images that are not specified. 

    A: NBP1-49533 is not specific for the extracellular domain of Glut4 becuase the immunogen of the antibody pertains to the cytoplasmic C-terminus of Glut4: Immunogen: A synthetic peptide made to a C-terminal portion of the human Glucose Transporter GLUT4 protein (between residues 480-509) [UniProt P14672]. Amino acids 480-509 correspond to the cytoplasmic tail of this protein, accordingly, NBP1-49533 has only been used for labeling the intracellular staining in FLOW cytometry.
    The only other option we have is MAB86541, which is made by our sister company R&D systems. They used their protocol for "Staining Membrane-associated Proteins" to product the Flow results, so if you have any other questions abotu this product I would contact them for the most accurate and proper information: https://www.rndsystems.com/resources/protocols/flow-cytometry-protocol-staining-membrane-associated-proteins-suspended-cells

  • Q: Would you please help confirm if NBP1-49533 has been tested for IHC with frozen sections?

    A: NBP1-49533 has been validated in WB, ICC/IF and IHC-P, but has not been validated in IHC-Fr yet. However, because this antibody worked very well in ICC/IF, I strongly believe that it will work in IHC-Fr also. Please see the protocol for IHC-Fr which is utilized in our lab.

  • Q: Do you happen to sell peptide for this antibody?

    A: We do have a peptide for this particular product. The catalog number is NBP1-49533PEP.
