**Background of GLUT4 Recombinant Protein**
GLUT4 (Glucose Transporter Type 4) is an insulin-regulated glucose transporter predominantly expressed in skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, and cardiac muscle. It plays a critical role in maintaining systemic glucose homeostasis by facilitating insulin-dependent glucose uptake into cells. Dysregulation of GLUT4 trafficking or expression is closely associated with insulin resistance, a hallmark of type 2 diabetes and metabolic disorders.
Recombinant GLUT4 protein is produced using biotechnological platforms, such as bacterial, yeast, or mammalian expression systems, to study its structure, function, and interaction with regulatory proteins. Unlike other GLUT isoforms, GLUT4 is unique in its intracellular localization under basal conditions and its translocation to the plasma membrane upon insulin stimulation. This dynamic process involves complex signaling pathways, including the PI3K-Akt axis, and interactions with vesicle-associated proteins like AS160 and SNAREs.
The production of recombinant GLUT4 enables researchers to investigate its kinetic properties, ligand binding, and post-translational modifications (e.g., phosphorylation) that modulate its activity. It is widely used in *in vitro* assays, drug discovery, and structural studies to identify compounds that enhance GLUT4 translocation or function, offering therapeutic potential for diabetes. Challenges in producing functional GLUT4 include preserving its native conformation, membrane integration, and solubility, often requiring optimized expression vectors, chaperone co-expression, or detergent-based purification.
Current research also utilizes GLUT4 recombinant proteins to develop diagnostic tools and engineered cell models for studying metabolic diseases. Advances in cryo-EM and X-ray crystallography have further elucidated its 3D structure, aiding in the design of targeted therapies. Overall, GLUT4 recombinant protein remains a vital tool in understanding glucose metabolism and developing interventions for insulin-resistant states.
