Abstract excerpt

Two different spontaneous glucose transport (GLUT) mutants were used to examine the identity and properties of proteins involved in rat cardiac myoblast glucose transport processes. The parental clone, H9C2, possessed a high (HAHT) and a low (LAHT) affinity hexose transport process, and the GLUT...
