products description :
Most mammalian cells transport glucose through a family of membrane proteins known as glucose transporters. Molecular cloning of these glucose transporters has identified a family of closely related genes that encodes at least 7 proteins (Glut-1- Glut-14, Mol. Wt. 40-80kD) and Sodium glucose co-transporter- 1 (SGLT-1, 662aa; ~75kD). Individual member of this family have identical predicted secondary structures with 12 transmembrane domains. Both N and c-termini are predicted to be cytoplasmic. Most differences in sequence homology exist within the four hydrophilic domains that may play a role in tissue-specific targeting. Glut isoforms differ in their tissue expression, substrate specificity and kinetic characteristics. Glut-1 mediates glucose transport into red cells, and throughout the blood brain barrier, and supply glucose to most cells. Glut-2 provides glucose to the liver and pancreatic cells. Glut-3 is the main transporter in neurons, whereas Glut-4 is primarily expressed in muscle and adipose tissue and regulated by insulin. Glut-5 transports fructose in intestine and testis.

uniprot summary :
GLUT2: an integral membrane facilitative glucose transporter. One of 13 members of the human equilibrative glucose transport protein family. Present at high levels in the plasma membrane of pancreatic b-cells where it initiates the first step in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, a glucose metabolism-dependent signaling mechanism. May mediate the bidirectional transfer of glucose across the plasma membrane of hepatocytes. May also participate with the Na( +2)/glucose cotransporter in the transcellular transport of glucose in the small intestine and kidney. Required for glucose sensitivity in the hypothalamus and brain stem. Involved in the control of food intake and stimulation of glucose uptake by peripheral tissues.
