Gene(ID):
Expression:
P11168 GTR2_HUMAN:

Liver, insulin-producing beta cell, small intestine and kidney.

Description:
This gene encodes an integral plasma membrane glycoprotein of the liver,islet beta cells,intestine,and kidney epithelium. The encoded protein mediates facilitated bidirectional glucose transport. Because of its low affinity for glucose,it has been suggested as a glucose sensor. Mutations in this gene are associated with susceptibility to diseases,including Fanconi-Bickel syndrome and noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene.

Research Backgrounds

Function:

Facilitative hexose transporter that mediates the transport of glucose and fructose. 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. Also able to mediate the transport of dehydroascorbate.

PTMs:

N-glycosylated; required for stability and retention at the cell surface of pancreatic beta cells.
