Glucose Transport

All GLUT transporters work via facilitated diffusion
GLUT1: most cell types including RBCs and brain
GLUT2 (bidirectional): pancreatic β islet cells, liver, renal tubular cells, small intestine
Low affinity and high capacity isoform – liver needs to be glycogen/glucose reservoir, but shouldn’t compete with other tissues

This should look similar to glucokinase (low affinity or ↑ Km and high capacity or ↑ Vmax) because it has a similar tissue distribution
GLUT3: neurons, testes, and the placenta
GLUT4: adipose tissue and striated muscle (skeletal and cardiac)
Insulin regulates insertion of GLUT4 transporters into cell membrane in response to high glucose levels
