Effects of insulin on glucose transport and glucose transporters in rat heart [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1988 The effect of insulin on glucose transport and glucose transporters was studied in perfused rat heart. Glucose transport was measured by the efflux of labelled 3-O-methylglucose from hearts preloaded with this hexose. Insulin stimulated 3-O-methylglucose transport by: (a) doubling the maximal velocity (Vmax); (b) decreasing the Kd from 6.9 to 2.7 mM ...

The glucose sensor-like protein Hxs1 is a high-affinity glucose transporter and required for virulence in Cryptococcus neoformans. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Cryptococcus is a major fungal pathogen that frequently causes systemic infection in patients with compromised immunity. Glucose, an important signal molecule and the preferred carbon source for Cryptococcus, plays a critical role in fungal development ...

A novel delta current method for transport stoichiometry estimation. [PDF]
, 2014 BackgroundThe ion transport stoichiometry (q) of electrogenic transporters is an important determinant of their function. q can be determined by the reversal potential (Erev) if the transporter under study is the only electrogenic transport mechanism or ...

More on glucose transporters: The acinar organization for hepatic glucose transport [PDF]
Hepatology, 1991 The “erythroid/brain” glucose transporter (GT) isoform is expressed only in a subset of hepatocytes, those forming the first row around the terminal hepatic venules, while the “liver” GT is expressed in all hepatocytes. After 3 d of starvation, a three- to fourfold elevation of expression of the erythroid/brain GT mRNA and ...
