Anti-GLUT-4 Antibody, C-terminus

产品说明

一般描述

The protein called GLUT-4, or more correctly Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 4 and encoded by the human gene SLC2A4/GLUT4 is a primary insulin regulated facilitative glucose transporter found primarily in skeletal and cardiac muscle, as well as brown and white fat but is also expressed in other tissues such as brain. In the brain GLUT4 is found exclusively in neurons. GLUT-4 is facilitative because it is not always present on the cell plasma membrane. GLUT-4 only localizes to the plasma membrane upon insulin induction. GLUT-4 is localized to the perinuclear region in resting cells. Mutations in GLUT-4 are a cause of one form of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. GLUT4 function as well as its transcriptional regulation is highly conserved throughout the vertebrate species.

特异性

Glucose transporter 4 (GLUT-4) is a protein present in rat skeletal muscle, heart and adipose tissues. GLUT-4 is highly conserved between species, and the peptide sequence selected for production of this antibody is identical in rat, human (amino acids 498-510), and mouse. This antibody shows no cross-reactivity of HepG2 type transporter from rat brain or other glucose transporters.

免疫原

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to the C-terminus of human GLUT-4.
