Anti-Glut1 Antibody

Glut1 (Glucose Transporter 1, SLC2A1) is a high-affinity transmembrane carrier that mediates basal glucose uptake in erythrocytes, vascular endothelium, and the blood-brain barrier. This rabbit polyclonal antibody, distributed by Antibodies.com, is validated for western blot, immunohistochemistry, and ELISA detection of Glut1 in human, mouse, and rat samples. The unconjugated reagent is supplied in a 100 µl vial and is intended for research use only. Its broad species reactivity makes it useful for comparative studies in cancer metabolism, where elevated Glut1 expression is linked to the Warburg effect, as well as investigations of glucose transport at neural and vascular interfaces and research into metabolic disease. Because Glut1 is an integral membrane glycoprotein of approximately 55 kDa, immunoblotting typically reveals a band at the expected molecular weight, while the polyclonal format provides multiple epitope recognition for robust signal across tissue types.
