Flow Cytometry (Intracellular) - FITC Anti-Glucose Transporter GLUT1 antibody [EPR3915] (AB322306)

Flow cytometry overlay histogram showing wild-type A549 (green line) and GLUT1 knockout A549 stained with ab322306 (magenta line). The cells were fixed with % methanol (5 min) and then permeabilised with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min. The cells were incubated in 1x PBS containing 10% normal goat serum to block non-specific protein-protein interaction followed by the antibody (ab322306) (1x 106 in 100ul at 0.04 ug/ml (1/12500)) for 30min at 22°C.

Isotype control antibody Rabbit IgG [EPR25A] FITC was used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody (wild-type A549 - black line, GLUT1 knockout A549 - grey line). Unlabelled sample was also used as a control (this line is not shown for the purpose of simplicity).

Acquisition of >5000 events were collected using a 50 mW Blue laser (488nm) and 525/40 bandpass filter.

This antibody gave a positive signal in cells fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min) / permeabilised with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min under the same conditions.

Supplementary information

The Glucose Transporter GLUT1 also known as SLC2A1 is an important protein responsible for the transport of glucose across cell membranes. The GLUT1 transporter has a molecular weight of approximately 55 kDa. This protein is highly expressed in erythrocytes endothelial cells lining blood vessels and in the blood-brain barrier. Its primary role is to facilitate the basal glucose uptake necessary for cellular metabolism particularly in tissues where glucose is a critical energy source.
Biological function summary

This glucose transporter plays a significant role in maintaining glucose homeostasis in the human body. GLUT1 functions independently and not as part of a complex. It ensures that glucose is available to cells with high metabolic demands including the brain and red blood cells where it remains important for survival and function. Its expression level can be influenced by various factors including hypoxia and insulin.

Pathways

GLUT1 is involved in the glycolysis and hypoxia-related pathways. It supports the glycolytic pathway by ensuring a sufficient supply of glucose to the cells which is then metabolized to produce ATP. Additionally during hypoxic conditions GLUT1 expression can increase aligning with proteins like HIF-1α which helps cells adapt by modifying their metabolism. This coordinated regulation permits cells to adjust their energy systems according to the oxygen availability.

GLUT1 is implicated in glucose transporter type 1 deficiency syndrome (GLUT1 DS) and various forms of cancer. GLUT1 DS results from inadequate glucose transport into the brain presenting neurological symptoms due to energy deficiency. In cancer overexpression of GLUT1 links to increased glucose uptake and tumor growth a condition known to involve proteins like hexokinase. These associations underline GLUT1's contribution to both genetic defects and metabolic shifts in cancerous tissues.

Target data

Facilitative glucose transporter, which is responsible for constitutive or basal glucose uptake (PubMed : 10227690, PubMed : 10954735, PubMed : 18245775, PubMed : 19449892, PubMed : 25982116, PubMed : 27078104, PubMed : 32860739). Has a very broad substrate specificity; can transport a wide range of aldoses including both pentoses and hexoses (PubMed : 18245775, PubMed : 19449892). Most important energy carrier of the brain : present at the blood-brain barrier and assures the energy-independent, facilitative transport of glucose into the brain (PubMed : 10227690). In association with BSG and NXNL1, promotes retinal cone survival by increasing glucose uptake into photoreceptors (By similarity). Required for mesendoderm differentiation (By similarity).
