Sequence determinants of GLUT1-mediated accelerated-exchange transport: analysis by homology-scanning mutagenesis.
The class 1 equilibrative glucose transporters GLUT1 and GLUT4 are structurally similar but catalyze distinct modes of transport. GLUT1 exhibits trans-acceleration, in which the presence of intracellular sugar stimulates the rate of unidirectional sugar uptake. GLUT4-mediated uptake is unaffected by intracellular sugar. Using homology-scanning mutagenesis in which domains of GLUT1 are substitut...
متن کاملMolecular Determinants of GLUT1: Structure and Function: A Dissertation
Hebert and Carruthers (1992) showed that the human erythrocyte glucose transporter is an allosteric complex of four GLUT1 proteins whose structure and substrate binding properties are stabilized by reductant-sensitive noncovalent subunit interactions. The GLUT1 tetramer dissociates into dimers upon exposure to reductant but subunits are not associated via disulfide bridges. Each subunit of SDS-...
متن کاملDetermination of GLUT1 Oligomerization Parameters using Bioluminescent Förster Resonance Energy Transfer
The facilitated glucose transporter GLUT1 (SLC2A1) is an important mediator of glucose homeostasis in humans. Though it is found in most cell types to some extent, the level of GLUT1 expression across different cell types can vary dramatically. Prior studies in erythrocytes-which express particularly high levels of GLUT1-have suggested that GLUT1 is able to form tetrameric complexes with enhanc...
متن کاملMolecular determinants for the thermodynamic and functional divergence of uniporter GLUT1 and proton symporter XylE
GLUT1 facilitates the down-gradient translocation of D-glucose across cell membrane in mammals. XylE, an Escherichia coli homolog of GLUT1, utilizes proton gradient as an energy source to drive uphill D-xylose transport. Previous studies of XylE and GLUT1 suggest that the variation between an acidic residue (Asp27 in XylE) and a neutral one (Asn29 in GLUT1) is a key element for their mechanisti...
