Overview
- Glut4 is a protein encoded by the SLC2A4 gene which is approximately 54, 7 kDa. Glut4 is localised to the cell membrane and cytoplasm. It is involved in the transport of glucose, other sugars, bile salts, organic acids and metal ions and AMP-activated protein kinase signalling. This protein falls under the solute carrier family 2 and functions as an insulin-regulated facilitative glucose transporter. In the absence of insulin, it is sequestered within the cells of muscle and adipose tissue. Within minutes of insulin stimulation, the protein moves to the cell surface and begins to transport glucose across the cell membrane. Glut4 is expressed in the skeletal and cardiac muscles, brown and white fat. Mutations in the SLC2A4 gene may be involved in diabetes mellitus. STJ96888 was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen. This polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of Glut4 protein.
