GLUT14

SLC2A14

SLC2A14

Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

Solute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter), member 14 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC2A14 gene.[5]

Quick Facts Identifiers, Aliases ...

Members of the glucose transporter (GLUT) family, including SLC2A14, are highly conserved integral membrane proteins that transport hexoses such as glucose and fructose into all mammalian cells. GLUTs show tissue and cell-type specific expression.[6][5]
