Which of the following are insulin dependent Glut receptors?
Correct answer: D. Glut 4
- A. Glut 1&3
- B. Glut 2
- C. Glut 1
- D. Glut 4
Explanation
GLUT4 is insulin-dependent and moves to the cell membrane in response to insulin, especially in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue. GLUT1, GLUT2 and GLUT3 are generally insulin-independent transporters, so students may select GLUT2 because it is important in pancreatic beta cells and glucose sensing.
