SLC2A2 - solute carrier family 2 member 2 Gene
Also Known as GLUT2
Species: Homo sapiens
About SLC2A2
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 312 orthologues, 13 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Biased expression in liver (RPKM 193.6), duodenum (RPKM 35.6) and 2 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes an integral plasma membrane glycoprotein of the liver, islet beta cells, intestine, and kidney epithelium. The encoded protein mediates facilitated bidirectional glucose transport. Because of its low affinity for glucose, it has been suggested as a glucose sensor. Mutations in this gene are associated with susceptibility to diseases, including Fanconi-Bickel syndrome and noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
