The encoded protein also is necessary for the increase in blood pressure due to high dietary fructose consumption. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2016]. * **UniProt Summary**: Functions as a fructose transporter that has only low activity with other monosaccharides (PubMed:8333543). Can mediate the uptake of 2-deoxyglucose, but with low efficiency (PubMed:1695905). Essential for fructose uptake in the small intestine. Plays a role in the regulation of salt uptake and blood pressure in response to dietary fructose. Required for the development of high blood pressure in response to high dietary fructose intake (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9WV38, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1695905, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8333543}. |Sugar tr| |MFS 1| |carbohydrate import across plasma membrane| |fructose import| |hexose import across plasma membrane| |fructose import across plasma membrane| |cellular response to fructose stimulus| |fructose binding| |fructose transmembrane transporter activity| |intestinal hexose absorption| |fructose transmembrane transport| |response to fructose| |glucose transmembrane transporter activity| |intestinal absorption| |glucose transmembrane transport| |hexose transmembrane transport| |monosaccharide transmembrane transport| |carbohydrate transmembrane transport| |regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure mediated by a chemical signal| |cellular response to hexose stimulus| |cellular response to monosaccharide stimulus| |digestive system process| |carbohydrate transport| |cellular response to carbohydrate stimulus| |specific granule membrane| |regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure| |import across plasma membrane| |sarcolemma| |digestion| |response to hexose| |response to monosaccharide| |response to carbohydrate| |regulation of blood pressure| |apical plasma membrane| |blood circulation| |circulatory system process| |carbohydrate metabolic process| |neutrophil degranulation| |neutrophil activation involved in immune response| |neutrophil mediated immunity| |neutrophil activation| |granulocyte activation| |leukocyte degranulation| |myeloid leukocyte mediated immunity| |myeloid cell activation involved in immune response| |myeloid leukocyte activation| |leukocyte activation involved in immune response| |cell activation involved in immune response| |import into cell| |regulated exocytosis| |leukocyte mediated immunity| |exocytosis| |leukocyte activation| |secretion by cell| |export from cell| |cellular response to oxygen-containing compound| |cell activation| |immune effector process| |secretion| |transmembrane transport| |integral component of plasma membrane| |response to oxygen-containing compound| |immune response| |vesicle-mediated transport| |system process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
