| Cat. No. 419 005 |
50 µg specific antibody, lyophilized. Affinity purified with the immunogen. Albumin and azide were added for stabilization. For reconstitution add 50 µl H2O to get a 1mg/ml solution in PBS. Then aliquot and store at -20°C to -80°C until use. Antibodies should be stored at +4°C when still lyophilized. Do not freeze! |

Glucose transporter type 1 (GLUT1), also known as SLC2A1, is ubiquitously expressed, and is present at high levels in primate erythrocytes and brain endothelial cells. GLUT1 is a major glucose transporter in the mammalian blood-brain barrier and is also able to transport dehydroascorbic acid (oxidized vitamin C) into the brain. GLUT1 may also contribute to HTLV-associated disorders through interactions with HTLV envelope glycoproteins.
