Short Description: |
Glucose Transporter GLUT1 Positive Control is synthetically produced from the sequence and is suitable for use in western blot applications. |
Formulation: |
Provided as 100 uL ready-to-use, in SDS-PAGE sample buffer (Laemelli's buffer) containing Tris, pH 6.8, 1 % SDS, Glycerol and Bromophenolblue blue as tracking dye. The sample is reduced by adding 2% beta mercaptoethanol. The protein concentration is |
Dilution Range: |
WB: 1:5, 000 |
Storage Instruction: |
Store at-20°C for long term storage. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles. |
Tissue Specificity | Detected in erythrocytes (at protein level). Expressed at variable levels in many human tissues. |
Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylation at Ser-226 by PKC promotes glucose uptake by increasing cell membrane localization. |
Function | Facilitative glucose transporter, which is responsible for constitutive or basal glucose uptake. Has a very broad substrate specificity.can transport a wide range of aldoses including both pentoses and hexoses. Most important energy carrier of the brain: present at the blood-brain barrier and assures the energy-independent, facilitative transport of glucose into the brain. In association with BSG and NXNL1, promotes retinal cone survival by increasing glucose uptake into photoreceptors. Required for mesendoderm differentiation. |
