The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Application IHC-P Abreviews Notes 1/100. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval with citrate buffer pH 6 before commencing with IHC staining protocol. WB 1/5000. Detects a band of approximately 42 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 54 kDa). Target Function Facilitative glucose transporter. This isoform may be responsible for constitutive or basal glucose uptake. Has a very broad substrate specificity; can transport a wide range of aldoses including both pentoses and hexoses. Tissue specificity Expressed at variable levels in many human tissues. Involvement in disease Defects in SLC2A1 are the cause of glucose transporter type 1 deficiency syndrome (GLUT1DS) [MIM:606777]; also known as blood-brain barrier glucose transport defect. This disease causes a defect in glucose transport across the blood-brain barrier. It is characterized by infantile seizures, delayed development, and acquired microcephaly. Defects in SLC2A1 are the cause of dystonia type 18 (DYT18) [MIM:612126]. DYT18 is an exercise-induced paroxysmal dystonia/dyskinesia. Dystonia is defined by the presence of sustained involuntary muscle contraction, often leading to abnormal postures. DYT18 is characterized by attacks of involuntary movements triggered by certain stimuli such as sudden movement or prolonged exercise. In some patients involuntary exertion-induced dystonic, choreoathetotic, and ballistic movements may be associated with macrocytic hemolytic anemia. Sequence similarities Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Sugar transporter (TC 2.A.1.1) family. Glucose transporter subfamily. Post-translational modifications Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR. Cellular localization Cell membrane. Melanosome. Localizes primarily at the cell surface (By similarity). Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV. Anti-Glucose Transporter GLUT1 antibody [EPR3915] (HRP) images 2 IHC image of Glucose Transporter GLUT1 staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffinembedded normal human colon tissue*, performed on a Leica BOND. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab195021 at 1/100 dilution, for 15 mins at room temperature. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed counterstained with haematoxylin and paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Glucose mounted with DPX. The inset negative control Transporter GLUT1 antibody [EPR3915] (HRP) image is taken from an identical assay (ab195021) without primary antibody. For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times. *Tissue obtained from the Human Research Tissue Bank, supported by the NIHR Cambridge Biomedical Research Centre 3 All lanes : Anti-Glucose Transporter GLUT1 antibody [EPR3915] (HRP) (ab195021) at 1/5000 dilution Lane 1 : Brain (Mouse) Tissue Lysate Lane 2 : Brain (Human) Tissue Lysate - fetal normal tissue Lysates/proteins at 10 µg per lane. developed using the ECL technique Western blot - Anti-Glucose Transporter GLUT1 antibody [EPR3915] (HRP) (ab195021) Performed under reducing conditions. Predicted band size : 54 kDa Observed band size : 42 kDa Exposure time : 30 seconds This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bistris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 50 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 3% milk before being incubated with ab195021 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was visualised using ECL development solution ab133406.
