Glucose is the main source of energy for mammalian cells and its entry is mediated by various transporters. This process involves seven facilitative (GLUT-1 to -7) and multiple members of the SGLT family. SGLT family members use the electrochemical gradient of two sodium ions to transport one glucose molecule. The mRNA of SGLTs increase steadily from the fetal period to maturity along with an increase in their functional activity. SGLT-4 (sodium/glucose cotransporter 4), also known as SLC5A9 (solute carrier family 5 member 9), is a 681 amino acid multi-pass membrane protein that participates in the sodium-dependent transport of D-fructose, D-mannose and D-glucose. A member of the sodium:solute symporter (SSF) family, SGLT-4 is found in small intestine and kidney.
