General Information
Biological Significance
Sodium glucose co transporters (SGLT), are active in the reabsorption of glucose in the proximal tubules of the kidneys. In the kidney, SGLT1 is expressed in proximal tubule Sq1 segments. SGLT1/NAGT or SLC5A1/NAGT (rat/mouse 665 aa; human 664 aa, chromosome 22q13.1, ~75 kDa) is a high affinity, Na+-coupled, intestinal transporter responsible for active glucose transport across the brush border membrane.
