GLUT14, a duplicon of GLUT3, is specifically expressed in testis as alternative splice forms 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
We have identified and cloned GLUT14, a novel member of the glucose transporter family. GLUT14 (SLC2A14) maps to chromosome 12p13.3 (17.1M), about 10 Mb upstream of GLUT3, with which it shares remarkable identity. Until now GLUT14 was thought to be a pseudogene. It consists of 11 exons with a genomic organization similar to that of GLUT3 and likely resulted from a duplication of GLUT3. GLUT14 has two alternatively spliced forms; the shorter form of GLUT14 (GLUT14-S) consists of 10 exons and produces a 497-amino-acid protein that is 94.5% identical to GLUT3. The long form (GLUT14-L) has an additional exon and codes for a protein with 520 amino acids that differs from GLUT14-S only at the N-terminus. GLUT14-S/L contain 12 putative membrane-spanning helices along with sugar-transporter signature motifs that have previously been shown to be essential for sugar transport activity. The putative glycosylation sites of GLUT14-S/L are present in loop 1. In contrast to the expression of GLUT3 in many tissues, both isoforms of GLUT14 are specifically expressed in testis. The mRNA level of GLUT14 in testis is about four times higher than that of GLUT3. Interestingly, the ortholog of GLUT14 is not found in mice. The multiple duplications of GLUT genes suggest that the GLUT family probably emerged by gene duplications and mutations during evolution in different lineages. 相似文献

To evaluate whether a structural defect in the human glucose transporter gene GLUT1 could be involved in the aetiology of
insulin resistance, a key factor of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and obesity, we performed single-strand
conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis in 40 subjects (20 NIDDM patients and 20 subjects with familial obesity). The GLUT1
gene, which is involved in basal glucose transport in most tissues, consists of ten exons and encodes a 492 amino acid protein.
Population studies have shown a strong association between the X1 allele of an XbaI restriction fragment length polymorphism of the GLUT1 gene and NIDDM. We therefore performed SSCP analysis in NIDDM subjects
known to carry at least one X1 allele. Variant SSCP patterns were detected in exons 2, 4, 5 and 9. Sequence analysis of the
SSCP variants revealed the presence, in all exons examined, of silent mutations consisting of single-nucleotide substitutions
with no amino acid changes. Both NIDDM and obese patients showed a high frequency of polymorphism in the sequence (50% and
35%, respectively). We conclude that the GLUT1 gene is unlikely to play a role in the aetiology of NIDDM and obesity. However,
the strong association between the GLUT1 gene and NIDDM, together with the recent family studies showing linkage between chromosome
1p and NIDDM warrant further studies on this chromosomal region.

In mammals, insulin-sensitive GLUTs, including GLUT4, are recruited to the plasma membrane of adipose and muscle tissues in response to insulin. The GLUT4 gene is absent from the chicken genome, and no functional insulin-sensitive GLUTs have been characterized in chicken tissues to date. A nucleotide sequence is predicted to encode a chicken GLUT12 ortholog and, interestingly, GLUT12 has been described to act as an insulin-sensitive GLUT in mammals. It encodes a 596 amino acid protein exhibiting 71% identity with human GLUT12. First, we present the results of a phylogenetic study showing the stability of this gene during evolution of vertebrates. Second, tissue distribution of chicken SLC2A12 mRNA was characterized by RT-PCR. It was predominantly expressed in skeletal muscle and heart. Protein distribution was analysed by Western blotting using an anti-human GLUT12 antibody directed against a highly conserved region (87% of identity). An immuno-reactive band of the expected size (75kDa) was detected in the same tissues. Third a physiological characterization was performed: SLC2A12 mRNA levels were significantly lowered in fed chickens subjected to insulin immuno-neutralization. Finally, recruitment of immuno-reactive GLUT12 to the muscle plasma membrane was increased following 1h of intraperitoneal insulin administration (compared to a control fasted state). Thus insulin administration elicited membrane GLUT12 recruitment. In conclusion, these results suggest that the facilitative glucose transporter protein GLUT12 could act in chicken muscle as an insulin-sensitive transporter that is qualitatively similar to GLUT4 in mammals. 相似文献

The SLC2A10 gene located on chromosome 20q13.1 encodes the facilitative glucose transporter 10 (GLUT10), a class III member of the SLC2A facilitative glucose transporter family. Mutations in the human SLC2A10 gene cause arterial tortuosity syndrome (ATS), a rare autosomal recessive connective tissue disorder. In this work, we report the characterization of the slc2a10 ortholog gene in zebrafish (Danio rerio) and its expression pattern during embryonic development and in adult tissues. The slc2a10 gene consists of 5 exons, spanning 8 kb and mapping to a region on chromosome 11 that exhibits conserved synteny with human chromosome 20. The gene encodes Glut10, a 513 amino acid protein that maintains the 12 transmembrane domain structure typical of the GLUTs family, and shares the specific functional motifs involved in sugar transport with the vertebrate GLUT10. RT-PCR analysis showed that two specific splice variants, both including the 5’-UTR region, were expressed during embryogenesis and in different adult zebrafish tissues and organs. In situ hybridization analyses demonstrated a maternal origin of the total slc2a10 mRNA and its ubiquitous distribution until the early somitogenesis stage. In later embryonic stages, slc2a10 mRNA was detected in the otic vesicles, hatching gland cells, pectoral fin, posterior tectum and swim bladder. Overall, these results suggest a wide role of slc2a10 during zebrafish development. 相似文献

The functional consequences of an in vivo heterozygous insertion mutation in the human facilitated glucose transporter isoform 1 (GLUT1) gene were investigated. The resulting frameshift in exon 10 changed the primary structure of the C-terminus from 42 in native GLUT1 to 61 amino acid residues in the mutant. Kinetic studies on a patient's erythrocytes were substantiated by expressing the mutant cDNA in Xenopus laevis oocytes. K(m) and V(max) values were clearly decreased explaining pathogenicity. Targeting to the plasma membrane was comparable between mutant and wild-type GLUT1. Transport inhibition by cytochalasin B was more effective in the mutant than in the wild-type transporter. The substrate specificity of GLUT1 remained unchanged. 相似文献

The type 2 diabetes is increasing rapidly around the globe. The primary cause for this is insulin resistance due to the disruption of the insulin signal transduction mechanism. Insulin signal transduction stimulates glucose transport through the glucose transporter GLUT4, by promoting the exocytosis process. Understanding the structural topology of GLUT4 mechanism will increase our understanding of the dynamic activities about glucose transport and its regulation in the membrane environment. However, little is known about the topology of GLUT4. In this article, we have determined the amino acid composition, disulfide topology, structure conformation pattern of GLUT4. The amino acid composition portrays that leucine composition is the highest contributing to 15.5 % among all other amino acids. Three cysteine residues such as Cys223, Cys361, and Cys363 were observed and the last two were associated with one disulfide bond formation. We have generated surface cavities to know the clefts/pockets on the surface of this protein that showed few irregular cavities placed mostly in the transmembrane-helical part. Besides, topology mapping of 12 transmembrane-helixes was done to predict N- and O-glycosylation sites and to show the highly glycosylated GLUT4 that includes both N- and O-glycosylation sites. Furthermore, hydrophobic segment and molecular charge distribution were analyzed. This article shows that bioinformatics tools can provide a rapid methodology to predict the topology of GLUT4. It also provides insights into the structural details and structural functioning relationships in the human GLUT4. The results can be of great help to advance future drug development research using GLUT4 as a target protein. 相似文献

To investigate the tissue distribution of the GLUT3 glucose transporter isoform in human tissue we produced affinity purified antibodies to the COOH terminus of the human GLUT3. Both antibodies recognize a specific GLUT3 band in oocytes injected with GLUT3 mRNA but not in those injected with H2O or GLUT1, 2, 4, 5 mRNA. This immunoreactive band in GLUT3 injected oocytes is photolabelled by cytochalasin-B in the presence of L- but not D-glucose indicating that it is a glucose transporter. A high cross reactivity between the human GLUT3 antibodies and a 43 kDa cytoskeletal actin band was identified in all oocyte lysates and many human tissues. However, the specific GLUT3 band could be distinguished from the actin band by carbonate treatment which preferentially solubilized the actin band. Using these antibodies we show that GLUT3 is present as a 45-48 kDa protein in human brain with lower levels detectable in heart, placenta, liver and a barely detectable level in kidney. No GLUT3 was detected in membranes from any of 3 skeletal muscle groups investigated. We conclude that a major role of GLUT3 in humans is as the brain neuronal glucose transporter. 相似文献

A molecular model of the three-dimensional (3-D) structure of the glucose transport protein, GLUT3, has been derived by homology modeling. The model was built on the basis of structural data from the MscL protein, which is a mechanosensitive ion channel, and general insights from aquaporin (a water permeation pore). Structurally conserved regions were defined by amino acid sequence comparisons, optimum interconnecting loops were selected from the protein databank, and amino (N)- and carboxy (C)-terminal ends of the protein were generated as random coil structures. The model was then subjected to energy minimization and molecular dynamics simulations in the presence of bound substrate (D-glucose). In the proposed structure of GLUT3, the 12 transmembrane (TM) helices form a right-hand barrel with a central hydrophilic pore. The pore is shaped like a funnel with dimensions of approximately 5-6 A by 8 A at its narrowest point. A network of polar and aromatic amino acids line the pore region and may facilitate the movement of glucose along the channel. A putative binding site for inhibitory ligands, such as forskolin and cytochalasin B, was identified on an intracellular aspect of the protein. Molecular dynamics studies showed that changes in the tilt and flexibility of key TM helices may modulate the opening of the pore to effect glucose transport. The proposed structure of GLUT3 may prove useful in guiding future experiments aimed at more precisely defining various functional regions of the transporter and may encourage efforts to develop models of other complex membrane proteins. 相似文献

Insulin stimulates glucose transport by translocation of the membrane glucose transporter GLUT4 from intracellular vesicles to the plasma membrane. GLUT4 is highly expressed in adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. We have constructed a cDNA containing the human GLUT4 inserted by a 12 amino acid protein C epitope in the first extracellular (exofacial) domain of the human GLUT4 (GLUT4-PC). Stable expression of GLUT4-PC in L6 myoblasts (L6-GLUT4-PC) was confirmed in immunofluorescence using monoclonal antibodies against protein C. The protein C staining yielded labeling in perinuclear vesicles strongly co-localizing with GLUT4 detected with antibodies directed against the endofacial part of GLUT4. The L6-GLUT4-PC cells were further characterized in a direct cell-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay by the use of beta-galactosidase. Cell surface binding of monoclonal protein C antibodies was detected with beta-galactosidase-conjugated secondary antibodies and chlorophenolred-beta-D-galactopyranoside (CPRG) as substrate in 2% paraformaldehyde fixed cells. In this assay, stimulation with insulin created a rapidly detectable recruitment of GLUT4-PC to the cell surface. This cell-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent GLUT4 assay was shown to be comparable with that of previously reported radioactive assays. 相似文献

Molecular and cellular regulation of glucose transporter (GLUT) proteins in cancer 总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21
Malignant cells are known to have accelerated metabolism, high glucose requirements, and increased glucose uptake. Transport of glucose across the plasma membrane of mammalian cells is the first rate-limiting step for glucose metabolism and is mediated by facilitative glucose transporter (GLUT) proteins. Increased glucose transport in malignant cells has been associated with increased and deregulated expression of glucose transporter proteins, with overexpression of GLUT1 and/or GLUT3 a characteristic feature. Oncogenic transformation of cultured mammalian cells causes a rapid increase of glucose transport and GLUT1 expression via interaction with GLUT1 promoter enhancer elements. In human studies, high levels of GLUT1 expression in tumors have been associated with poor survival. Studies indicate that glucose transport in breast cancer is not fully explained by GLUT1 or GLUT3 expression, suggesting involvement of another glucose transporter. Recently, a novel glucose transporter protein, GLUT12, has been found in breast and prostate cancers. In human breast and prostate tumors and cultured cells, GLUT12 is located intracellularly and at the cell surface. Trafficking of GLUT12 to the plasma membrane could therefore contribute to glucose uptake. Several factors have been implicated in the regulation of glucose transporter expression in breast cancer. Hypoxia can increase GLUT1 levels and glucose uptake. Estradiol and epidermal growth factor, both of which can play a role in breast cancer cell growth, increase glucose consumption. Estradiol and epidermal growth factor also increase GLUT12 protein levels in cultured breast cancer cells. Targeting GLUT12 could provide novel methods for detection and treatment of breast and prostate cancer. 相似文献

The intracellular C-terminal domain is diverse in size and amino acid sequence among facilitative glucose transporter isoforms. The characteristics of glucose transport are also divergent, and GLUT2 has far higher Km and Vmax values compared with GLUT1. To investigate the role of the intracellular C-terminal domain in glucose transport, we expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells the mutated GLUT1 protein whose intracellular C-terminal domain was replaced with that of GLUT2 by means of engineering the chimeric cDNA. Cytochalasin B, for which GLUT2 protein has much lower affinity, bound to this chimeric protein in a fashion similar to GLUT1. In contrast, greater transport activity was observed in this chimeric glucose transporter compared with the wild-type GLUT1 at 10 mM 2-deoxy-D-glucose concentration. The kinetic studies on 2-deoxy-D-glucose uptake revealed a 3.8-fold increase in Km and a 4.3-fold increase in Vmax in this chimeric glucose transporter compared with the wild-type GLUT1. Thus, replacement of the intracellular C-terminal domain confers the GLUT2-like property on the glucose transporter. These results strongly suggest that the diversity of intracellular C-terminal domain contributes to the diversity of glucose transport characteristics among isoforms. 相似文献

This study investigates the relationship between human erythrocyte glucose transport protein (GLUT1) oligomeric structure and glucose transporter function. Oligomeric structure was analyzed by hydrodynamic studies of cholate-solubilized GLUT1, by chemical cross-linking studies of membrane-resident GLUT1 and by using conformation-specific antibodies. Transporter function (substrate binding) was analyzed by equilibrium cytochalasin B and D-glucose binding measurements. Erythrocyte-resident glucose transporter is a GLUT1 homotetramer, binds 1 mol of cytochalasin B/2 mol of GLUT1, and presents at least two binding sites to D-glucose. Native structure and function appear to be stabilized by intramolecular disulfide bonds and are preserved during GLUT1 purification by the omission of reductant. Native structure is independent of in vitro and in vivo membrane GLUT1 density but is transformed to dimeric GLUT1 by alkaline reduction. Dimeric GLUT1 binds 1 mol of cytochalasin B/mol of GLUT1, presents a single population of binding sites to D-glucose, and is obtained upon GLUT1 purification in the presence of reductant. Native structure and function are restored by treatment of dimeric GLUT1 with glutathione-disulfide (K0.5 glutathione disulfide = 29 microM). We propose that native structure is established prior to transporter translocation to the plasma membrane and that intrasubunit disulfide bonds promote cooperative subunit interactions that stabilize transporter structure and function. 相似文献

Subcellular targeting and the activity of facilitative glucose transporters are likely to be regulated by interactions with cellular proteins. This report describes the identification and characterization of a protein, GLUT1 C-terminal binding protein (GLUT1CBP), that binds via a PDZ domain to the C terminus of GLUT1. The interaction requires the C-terminal four amino acids of GLUT1 and is isoform specific because GLUT1CBP does not interact with the C terminus of GLUT3 or GLUT4. Most rat tissues examined contain both GLUT1CBP and GLUT1 mRNA, whereas only small intestine lacked detectable GLUT1CBP protein. GLUT1CBP is also expressed in primary cultures of neurons and astrocytes, as well as in Chinese hamster ovary, 3T3-L1, Madin-Darby canine kidney, Caco-2, and pheochromocytoma-12 cell lines. GLUT1CBP is able to bind to native GLUT1 extracted from cell membranes, self-associate, or interact with the cytoskeletal proteins myosin VI, alpha-actinin-1, and the kinesin superfamily protein KIF-1B. The presence of a PDZ domain places GLUT1CBP among a growing family of structural and regulatory proteins, many of which are localized to areas of membrane specialization. This and its ability to interact with GLUT1 and cytoskeletal proteins implicate GLUT1CBP in cellular mechanisms for targeting GLUT1 to specific subcellular sites either by tethering the transporter to cytoskeletal motor proteins or by anchoring the transporter to the actin cytoskeleton. 相似文献
