Identification of Structural Determinants of the Transport of the Dehydroascorbic Acid Mediated by Glucose Transport GLUT1
GLUT1 is a facilitative glucose transporter that can transport oxidized vitamin C (i.e., dehydroascorbic acid) and complements the action of reduced vitamin C transporters. To identify the residues involved in human GLUT1’s transport of dehydroascorbic acid, we performed docking studies in the 5 Å g...
