Glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4), also known as solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 4, is a protein encoded, in humans, by the SLC2A4 gene. GLUT4 is the insulin -regulated glucose transporter found primarily in adipose tissues and striated muscle (skeletal and cardiac).
TUG releases the GLUT4 containing vesicles (GSVs) in response to insulin stimulation which allows it to move to the plasma membrane. [2] TUG has an N-terminal ubiquitin-like protein domain (UBL1) which in similar proteins appears to participate in protein-protein interactions. [2]
ProbID is a software tool designed to identify peptides from tandem mass spectra using a protein sequence database. It was developed at the Bioinformatics Group, Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China. [16] ProLuCID Freeware
GLUT4 has a Km value for glucose of about 5 mM, which as stated above is the normal blood glucose level in healthy individuals. GLUT4 is the most abundant glucose transporter in skeletal muscle and is thus considered to be rate limiting for glucose uptake and metabolism in resting muscles. [ 8 ]

David Ernest James FAA (born in Sydney in 1958) is a cell biologist who discovered the glucose transporter GLUT4.He has also been responsible for the molecular dissection of the intracellular trafficking pathways that regulate GLUT4 translocation to the cell surface, the topological mapping of the insulin signal transduction pathway, the creation of a method for studying in vivo metabolism in ...
Acute insulin treatment increases PtdIns(3,5)P2 levels in 3T3L1 adipocytes, both in isolated membranes and intact cells to promote insulin effect on GLUT4 cell surface translocation and glucose transport. [11] [12] These cells also show a marked PtdIns(3,5)P2 increase upon hyperosmotic shock.
