High-capacity urate transporter, which may play a role in the urate reabsorption by proximal tubules (PubMed:18327257, PubMed:18701466, PubMed:22647630, PubMed:28083649, PubMed:36749388). May have a residual high-affinity, low-capacity glucose and fructose transporter activity (PubMed:18327257, PubMed:18701466, PubMed:18842065). Transports urate at rates 45- to 60-fold faster than glucose (PubMed:18842065). Does not transport galactose (PubMed:28083649). May mediate small uptake of adenine but not of other nucleobases (PubMed:22647630).

GLUT9 also known as SLC2A9 functions as a facilitative glucose transporter with a molecular weight of about 57 kDa. It is highly expressed in the kidneys and liver with lower levels of expression in other tissues such as the placenta and heart. GLUT9 facilitates the transport of uric acid glucose and fructose across the cell membrane playing an important role in cellular energy balance and metabolic processes.
In the human body this protein influences urate homeostasis by managing uric acid levels in the blood. GLUT9 operates as a homomeric protein meaning it forms a functional unit by itself rather than needing to associate with other proteins to function. It significantly affects renal reabsorption processes regulating the excretion and reabsorption of urate in the kidneys. By controlling these uric acid levels it plays an important part in preventing hyperuricemia and related complications.
GLUT9 contributes mainly to carbohydrate metabolism and urate transport pathways. Its role within the urate transport pathway links it to various other urate transporter proteins such as URAT1 which also participates in the regulation of uric acid excretion. In glucose metabolism GLUT9 works alongside other glucose transporters to maintain glucose levels linking it indirectly to pathways involving insulin response.
Elevated GLUT9 activity associates closely with conditions like gout and hyperuricemia. Due to its role in uric acid transport any dysfunction in GLUT9 can lead to increased serum uric acid contributing to gout development. Furthermore the interaction between GLUT9 and correlating proteins such as ABCG2 influences uric acid excretion processes connecting it to the pathological mechanisms underpinning these disorders. Researchers focus on these interactions to develop potential therapeutic strategies to manage related conditions effectively.
