Unconjugated Rabbit anti-Human, Mouse, Rat, Goat GLUT2 Polyclonal Antibody [IgG]

GLUT2; Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 2; Glucose transporter type 2, liver; GLUT-2; SLC2A2

Facilitative glucose transporter. This isoform likely mediates the bidirectional transfer of glucose across the plasma membrane of hepatocytes and is responsible for uptake of glucose by the beta cells; may comprise part of the glucose-sensing mechanism of the beta cell. May also participate with the Na(+)/glucose cotransporter in the transcellular transport of glucose in the small intestine and kidney.
