Other name
SLC2A5; GLUT5; Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 5; Fructose transporter; Glucose transporter type 5, small intestine; GLUT-5
Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a fructose transporter responsible for fructose uptake by the small intestine. The encoded protein also is necessary for the increase in blood pressure due to high dietary fructose consumption. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2016],
Function
function:Cytochalasin B-sensitive carrier. Seems to function primarily as a fructose transporter.,induction:By forskolin (in Caco-2 cells).,mass spectrometry: PubMed:11840567,similarity:Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Sugar transporter (TC 2.A.1.1) family. Glucose transporter subfamily.,tissue specificity:Expressed in small intestine, and at much lower levels in kidney, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissue.,
