General description

A cytochalasin B-sensitive carrier located in the membrane, GLUT-5 appears to be primarily functional as a fructose transporter. It is expressed in the small intestine, and is also found in the skeletal muscle, kidney and adipose tissue but at significantly reduced levels.

Specificity

Recognizes GLUT-5.

Immunogen

Epitope: C-terminus
Synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminus of rat GLUT-5 (aa 490-502) coupled to KLH. The immunogen sequence used is only 53% conserved in mouse.

Application

Anti-GLUT-5 Antibody, a.a. 490-502 detects level of GLUT-5 & has been published & validated for use in WB.
Research Category
Signaling
Research Sub Category
Insulin/Energy Signaling

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in Mouse kidney lysate.
Western Blot Analysis: A 1:1000 dilution of this antibody detected GLUT-5 in 10 µg of mouse kidney lysates.

Target description

Approx. 54 kDa

Linkage

Replaces: AB1348

Physical form

Liquid containing 0.05% sodium azide.
Unpurified rabbit serum

Storage and Stability

Fructose has become a major constituent of our modern diet and is implicated as an underlying cause in the development of metabolic diseases. The fructose transporter GLUT5 (SLC2A5) is required for intestinal fructose absorption. GLUT5 expression is induced in the

Intake of fructose-containing sugars is strongly associated with metabolic syndrome. Compared with other sugars, dietary fructose is uniquely metabolized by fructokinase. However, the tissue-specific role of fructokinase in sugar-induced metabolic syndrome, and the specific roles of glucose and fructose in
