Insights from the fungus Fusarium oxysporum point to high affinity glucose transporters as targets for enhancing ethanol production from lignocellulose. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Ethanol is the most-widely used biofuel in the world today. Lignocellulosic plant biomass derived from agricultural residue can be converted to ethanol via microbial bioprocessing.

Human Glucose Transporters in Renal Glucose Homeostasis [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
The kidney plays an important role in glucose homeostasis by releasing glucose into the blood stream to prevent hypoglycemia. It is also responsible for the filtration and subsequent reabsorption or excretion of glucose. As glucose is hydrophilic and soluble in water, it is unable to pass through the lipid bilayer on its own; therefore, transport takes

Antipsychotics inhibit glucose transport: Determination of olanzapine binding site inStaphylococcus epidermidis glucose/H+ symporter

FEBS Open Bio, 2015
The antipsychotic drug olanzapine is widely prescribed to treat schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders. However, it often causes unwanted side effects, including diabetes, due to disruption of insulin‐dependant glucose metabolism through a mechanism

Lipid raft microdomain compartmentalization of TC10 is required for insulin signaling and GLUT4 translocation. [PDF]

, 2001
Recent studies indicate that insulin stimulation of glucose transporter (GLUT)4 translocation requires at least two distinct insulin receptor-mediated signals: one leading to the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3 (PI-3) kinase and the other to the ...

An evolved xylose transporter from Zymomonas mobilis enhances sugar transport in Escherichia coli

Microbial Cell Factories, 2009
Background Xylose is a second most abundant sugar component of lignocellulose besides glucose. Efficient fermentation of xylose is important for the economics of biomass-based biorefineries.
