GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

SLC2A8 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

GLUT8, GLUTX1

Description

Solute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter), member 8 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene belongs to the solute carrier 2A family, which includes intracellular glucose transporters. Based on sequence comparison, the glucose transporters are grouped into three classes and this gene is a member of class II. The encoded protein, like other members of the family, contains several conserved residues and motifs and 12 transmembrane domains with both amino and carboxyl ends being on the cytosolic side of the membrane. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]
