Abstract excerpt
A structure has been proposed for glucose transporter-1 (GLUT1) based upon homology modeling that is consistent with the results of numerous mutagenesis studies (Mueckler, M., and Makepeace, C. (2004) J. Biol. Chem. 279, 10494-10499). To further test and refine this model, the relative orientation and proximity of transmembrane helices 4 and 8 were analyzed by chemical crosslinking of di-cysteine mutants created...
