Mfr.No.	PA2165, PA2165-10ug, PA2165-Biotin, PA2165-Cy3, PA2165-Dylight488, PA2165-Dylight550, PA2165-Dylight594, PA2165-FITC, PA2165-HRP, PA2165-APC, PA2165-PE, PA2165-iFluor647, PA2165-carrier-free
Alternative Names	Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 8
Background	Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 8, also known as SLC2A8, is the eighth member of glucose transporter superfamily. It is characterized by the presence of two leucine residues in its N-terminal intracellular domain, which influences intracellular trafficking. This gene is mapped to 9q33.3. Based on sequence comparison, the glucose transporters are grouped into three classes and this gene is a member of class II. It may act as the insulin-regulated facilitative glucose transporter. This gene binds cytochalasin B in a glucose-inhibitable manner. The binds seems to be a dual-specific sugar transporter as it is inhibitable by fructose.
Clonality	Polyclonal
Cross Reactivity	No cross-reactivity with other proteins
Description	Boster Bio Anti-Glucose Transporter 8/SLC2A8 Antibody catalog # PA2165. Tested in IHC, WB applications. This antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat. The brand Picoband indicates this is a premium antibody that guarantees superior quality, high affinity, and strong signals with minimal background in Weste blot applications. Only our best-performing antibodies are designated as Picoband, ensuring unmatched performance.
Function	Insulin-regulated facilitative glucose transporter. Binds cytochalasin B in a glucose-inhibitable manner. Seems to be a dual-specific sugar transporter as it is inhibitable by fructose.
Host	Rabbit
Immunogen Region	A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of mouse Glucose Transporter 8, different from the related rat sequence by one amino acid, and from the related human sequence by two amino acids.
Isotype	Rabbit IgG
Molecular Weight	55 kDa
Reactivity	Human, Mouse, Rat
Reconstitution	Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.
Specificity	No cross reactivity with other proteins.
Synonyms	Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 8;Glucose transporter type 8;GLUT-8;Glucose transporter type X1;Slc2a8;Glut8, GlutX1;
Tissue Specificity	Highest level of expression in placenta and testis. Highly expressed in adult and pubertal testis, but not prepubertal testis. Lower levels of expression in brain, liver, heart, kidney, fat and skeletal muscle.
Note	Each vial contains 5mg BSA, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na2HPO4, 0.05mg Thimerosal, 0.05mg NaN3.

Uniprot	Q9JIF3
Gene Name	SLC2A8
Subcellular Location	Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Principally intracellular. May move between intracellular vesicles and the plasma membrane. The dileucine intealization motif is critical for intracellular sequestration (By similarity). Insulin induces a change in the intracellular localization and gives rise to insertion in the plasma membrane. .

Conjugates	Biotin, Cy3, Dylight488, Dylight550, Dylight594, FITC, HRP, APC, PE, iFluor647, carrier-free

Concentration	Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 ug/ml.
Form	Lyophilized
Purification	Immunogen affinity purified.
Storage	Store at -20°C for one year from date of receipt. After reconstitution, at 4°C for one month. It can also be aliquotted and stored frozen at -20°C for six months. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Applications	IHC, WB
Description	Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Section), 0.5-1ug/ml, Human, Rat, Mouse, By Heat<br>Weste blot, 0.1-0.5ug/ml, Human, Rat, Mouse<br>
