Function
Electrogenic Na(+)-coupled sugar symporter that actively transports D-glucose at the plasma membrane, with a Na(+) to sugar coupling ratio of 1:1. Transporter activity is driven by a transmembrane Na(+) electrochemical gradient set by the Na(+)/K(+) pump. Unlike SLC5A1/SGLT1, requires the auxiliary protein PDZK1IP1/MAP17 for full transporter activity.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Apical cell membrane (Multi-pass membrane protein)
Disease Association: Renal glucosuria (GLYS) : A disorder characterized by persistent isolated glucosuria, normal fasting serum glucose concentration, decreased renal tubular resorption of glucose from the urine, and absence of any other signs of tubular dysfunction. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry]
