General Information
Biological Significance
Most mammalian cells transport glucose through a family of membrane proteins known as glucose transporters. Glut isoforms differ in their tissue expression, substrate specificity and kinetic characteristics. Glut-8 (mouse 477-aa) is found in adult testis and placenta.
