General description

Anti-GLUT1 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total GLUT1 protein.
GLUT1 (Glucose transporter type 1) gene is located on human chromosome 1p34.2. It is expressed in cerebral endothelial cells.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human GLUT1.

Immunogen Range: 441-490

Application

Anti-GLUT1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used
  • for protein extraction
  • in western blotting
  • for immunohistochemistry

Anti-GLUT1, C-Terminal antibody is suitable for use in western blot and immunohistochemistry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

GLUT1 (Glucose transporter type 1) functions as a receptor for human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV) I and II. It plays a key role in HTLV-envelope mediated infection. GLUT1 is associated with paroxysmal exertion-induced dyskinesia. Glut1 may regulate cerebral microvasculature, proliferation of endothelial cells and the development of junctional complexes of the BBB (blood-brain barrier). It transports glucose across the BBB.
GLUT1 is a membrane protein that regulates the facilitative transport of glucose across the cells. Mutations in the gene encoding GLUT1 have been linked to epilepsy and diabetic nephropathy . Increased expression of GLUT1 has been associated with tumor differentiation in breast and endometrial cancers, whereas decreased GLUT1 function causes GLUT1 deficiency syndrome . Anti-GLUT1, C-Terminal antibody can be used to detect endogenous levels of total GLUT1 protein. The antibody specifically reacts with GLUT1 in mice, rats and humans.
