Product Specifications

Specificity

Recognizes an epitope in the cytoplasmic portion of rat Glut4 and has been shown to bind only to the muscle-adipose isoform of the glucose transporter, which is antigenically unique from the other transport proteins (1-3). Recognizes Glut4 in human, monkey, rat, mouse, and rabbit systems. It does not recognize this protein in canine systems. Its ability to bind to glucose transporter from other species has not been tested.

Background: Glut4

Glut4 belongs to the facilitative glucose transporter protein family that comprises 13 members. It is an integral membrane protein with 12 transmembrane domains. Glut4 is expressed in the insulin-responsive tissues, muscle and adipose tissue. Insulin stimulation leads to translocation of Glut4 from intracellular stores to the cell surface resulting in the enhancement of glucose uptake.
