Proton-Coupled Sugar and Amino Acid Transporters in Plants Page 1 Annu. Rev. Plant
Physiol. Plant Mol. BioI. 1993. 44:513-42 PROTON-COUPLED SUGAR AND AMINO ACID …

Two novel facilitative glucose transporter-like cDNAs have been isolated from human small
intestine and fetal skeletal muscle cDNA libraries by low stringency cross-hybridization with …

In plants, sucrose is the major transport form for photoassimilated carbon and is both a
source of carbon skeletons and energy for plant organs unable to perform photosynthesis …

A novel fluorescent derivative of glucose was synthesized by reacting d-glucosamine and
NBD-Cl. The TLC analysis of the reaction mixture showed the generation of a single spot …

The sequence was determined of 6493 nucleotides encompassing the bet genes of
Escherichia coli which encode the osmoregulatory choline—glycine betaine pathway. Four …

Facilitative glucose transporters exhibit variable hexose affinity and tissue-specific
expression. These characteristics contribute to specialized metabolic properties of cells …

Saccharomyces cerevisiae accomplishes high rates of hexose transport. The kinetics of
hexose transport are complex. The capacity and kinetic complexity of hexose transport in …

Transport of sugars is a fundamental property of all eukaryotic cells. Of particular importance
is the uptake of glucose, a preferred carbon and energy source. The rate of glucose …

Glucose transport by facilitated diffusion is mediated by a family of tissue-specific membrane
glycoproteins. At least four members of this gene family have been identified by cDNA …
