The recent sequencing of the human genome has resulted in the addition of nine new
hGLUT isoforms to the SLC2A family, many of which have widely varying substrate
specificity, kinetic behavior, and tissue distribution. This review examines some new
hypotheses related to the structure and function of these proteins.
