Abstract excerpt
On a three-dimensional templated model of GLUT1 (Protein Data Bank code 1SUK), a molecular recognition program, AUTODOCK 3, reveals nine hexose-binding clusters spanning the entire "hydrophilic" channel. Five of these cluster sites are within 3-5 A of 10 glucose transporter deficiency syndrome missense mutations. Another three sites are within 8 A of two other missense mutations. D-glucose binds to five sites in...
