Gene information for SLC2A2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6514
Official gene symbolSLC2A2
Full namesolute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter), member 2
Aliases,GLUT2,
Gene summaryGlucose transporter 2 isoform is an integral plasma membrane glycoprotein of the liver, islet beta cells, intestine, and kidney epithelium. It mediates facilitated bidirectional glucose transport. Because of its low affinity for glucose, it has been suggested as a glucose sensor. [provided by RefSeq]
