SLC2A8  
    


    
      Official symbol:  SLC2A8
      Full name:  solute carrier family 2 member 8
      Location:  9q33.3
      Also known as:  GLUT8, GLUTX1
      Entrez ID:  29988
      Ensembl ID:  ENSG00000136856
      Summary:  This gene belongs to the solute carrier 2A family, which includes intracellular glucose transporters. Based on sequence comparison, the glucose transporters are grouped into three classes and this gene is a member of class II. The encoded protein, like other members of the family, contains several conserved residues and motifs and 12 transmembrane domains with both amino and carboxyl ends being on the cytosolic side of the membrane. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]
