Sodium/glucose cotransporter 2
Also known as: SGLT2, SLC5A2
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. Has a primary role in D-glucose reabsorption from glomerular filtrate across the brush border of the early proximal tubules of the kidney (By similarity).
