Irradiation of intact rat adipocytes with high intensity ultraviolet light in the presence of 0.5 microM [3H] cytochalasin B results in the labeling of Mr 43,000 and 46,000 proteins that reside in the plasma membrane fraction. In contrast to the

The possible role of 5 transmembrane amino acid residues in the function of the Glut1 glucose transporter was investigated by site-directed mutagenesis. The residues were chosen based on their containing hydroxyl or amide side chains capable of hydrogen bonding to
The Journal of biological chemistry, 267(25), 17502-17507 (1992-09-05)
The structure-function relationship of the HepG2/erythrocyte-type glucose transporter (GLUT1) has been studied by in vitro site-directed mutagenesis. Chinese hamster ovary clones in which glucose transporters were transfected were shown by Western blotting with a GLUT1 anti-COOH-terminal peptide antibody to have

Tryptic digestion has been used to investigate the conformational changes associated with substrate translocation by the human erythrocyte glucose transporter. The effects of substrates and inhibitors of transport on the rates of tryptic cleavage at the cytoplasmic surface of the
The Biochemical journal, 295 ( Pt 1), 183-188 (1993-10-01)
The transport conformation of the human erythrocyte glucose transporter (GLUT1) modifies rates of proteolytic cleavage of this protein by a variety of enzymes. We investigated the effects of ligand-induced conformational change on the susceptibility to enzymic cleavage of the insulin-sensitive
