Gene Symbol:	SLC2A8
Gene ID:	29988
Uniprot ID:	SL2A8_HUMAN
Immunogen Region:	400-500
Immunogen:	Synthetic peptide taken within amino acid region 400-500 on GLUT8 protein.

Tissue Specificity	Highly expressed in testis, but not in testicular carcinoma. Lower amounts present in most other tissues.
Function	Insulin-regulated facilitative hexose transporter that mediates the transport of glucose and fructose. Facilitates hepatic influx of dietary trehalose, which in turn inhibits glucose and fructose influx triggering a starvation signal and hepatic autophagy through activation of AMPK and ULK1. Also able to mediate the transport of dehydroascorbate.
Protein Name	Solute Carrier Family 2 - Facilitated Glucose Transporter Member 8 Glucose Transporter Type 8 Glut-8 Glucose Transporter Type X1
