A full-length cDNA clone that codes for glucose transporter protein was isolated from a rabbit brain cDNA library by using synthetic oligonucleotide probe derived from the sequence of human glucose transporter cDNA. The coding region shared 93.2% nucleotide and 97.0% amino-acid similarities with those of human glucose transporter and 89.4% nucleotide and 97.4% amino-acid similarities with those of rat transporter. Northern blot analysis revealed that glucose transporter mRNA is most abundant in the placenta and that it is also abundant in the brain. The fat tissue, heart, liver, and skeletal muscle of adult rats contained a very small amount of mRNA, while heart, liver, skeletal muscle and kidney of fetal rats contained a very high amount of glucose transporter mRNA. These results suggest that this type of glucose transporter might be closely related with cell proliferation and tissue development.
