Abstract excerpt
Glucose transport mutants were used to examine the intrinsic properties of glucose transport processes in rat myoblasts. Studies with mutants devoid of any functional glucose transporter revealed that substantial amount of sugar analogues was internalized via simple diffusion; however, equilibrat...
