NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
transports glucose; may play a role in insulin response [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
GLUT4: an integral membrane facilitative glucose transporter. One of 13 members of the human equilibrative glucose transport protein family. Its surface expression is regulated by insulin. Has two internalization sequences, a dileucine repeat present in the C-terminus and a FxxY motif in the amino-terminal end. Associates with an intracellular tubulo-vesicular compartment under low plasma conditions. The binding of insulin to the insulin receptor (a typosine kinase) leads to the rapid translocation of GLUT4 to the cell surface, increasing cellular glucose transport activity. Its translocation to the plasma membrane is also stimulated by exercise, but independent from insulin signaling. This insulin-independent pathway may be regulated by AMPK.

Product Notes
The Rat Slc2a4 slc2a4 (Catalog #AAA2882960) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2882960 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat Slc2a4. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 4, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
