Protein Information
Name Slc2a4 {ECO:0000312|MGI:MGI:95758}
Function Insulin-regulated facilitative glucose transporter, which plays a key role in removal of glucose from circulation (PubMed:26240143, PubMed:26629404). Response to insulin is regulated by its intracellular localization: in the absence of insulin, it is efficiently retained intracellularly within storage compartments in muscle and fat cells (PubMed:26240143, PubMed:26629404). Upon insulin stimulation, translocates from these compartments to the cell surface where it transports glucose from the extracellular milieu into the cell (PubMed:26240143, PubMed:26629404).
Cellular Location Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Endomembrane system; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Note=Localizes primarily to the perinuclear region, undergoing continued recycling to the plasma membrane where it is rapidly reinternalized (PubMed:26629404, PubMed:26240143, PubMed:27354378). The dileucine internalization motif is critical for intracellular sequestration (PubMed:26240143, PubMed:26629404). Insulin stimulation induces translocation to the cell membrane (PubMed:27739494).
Tissue Location Expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscles (PubMed:2654938, PubMed:26240143). Expressed in brown and white adipose tissues (PubMed:2654938, PubMed:26240143)

Background

Insulin stimulates glucose uptake in the muscles and adipose tissues by activating GLUT4 (Glucose Transporter Type 4). GLUT 4 is a transmembrane protein that facilitates glucose transport from storage sites to cell surface. Human insulin resistance involves a defect in GLUT4 that leads to accumulation in a dense membrane compartment from which insulin is unable to recruit GLUT4 to the cell surface.
