Query author contributions in Reactome
Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at ORCID and Reactome.
If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

| text | Class III facilitative transporters consist of five members; GLUT6, 8, 10, 12 and HMIT (a H+/myo-inositol transporter). They possess a characteristic glycosylation site on loop 9 (found in loop 1 of classes I and II transporters). Four class III facilitative transporters can transport glucose. SLC2A6 encodes GLUT6, expressed mainly in brain, spleen and leucocytes (Doege H et al, 2000a). In literature, this protein is incorrectly described as GLUT9. SLC2A8 encodes GLUT8 and is expressed in brain, testis and adipose tissue (Doege H et al, 2000b). SLC2A10 (located in the Type 2 diabetes-linked region of human chromosome 20q12-13.1) encodes GLUT10, a transporter with high affinity for glucose (McVie-Wylie AJ et al, 2001) . GLUT10 is highly expressed in liver and pancreas but is present in most tissues in lower levels. Defects in SLC2A10 are the cause of arterial tortuosity syndrome (ATS), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by tortuosity and elongation of major arteries, often resulting in death at a young age (Coucke PJ et al, 2006). SLC2A12 encodes GLUT12, which is highly expressed in skeletal muscle, heart and prostate, with lower levels in brain, placenta and kidney. It was originally cloned from the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 (Rogers S et al, 2002). |
