insulin-responsive glucose:proton symporter activity

Term ID

GO:0005360

Synonyms

• insulin-responsive hydrogen:glucose symporter activity
• insulin-responsive hydrogen:glucose transporter activity
• transepithelial hydrogen/glucose transporter activity

Definition

Enables the transfer of a solute or solutes from one side of a membrane to the other according to the reaction: glucose(out) + H(out)+ = glucose(in) + H(in)+, in response to a stimulus by insulin. Symporter activity enables the active transport of a solute across a membrane by a mechanism whereby two or more species are transported together in the same direction in a tightly coupled process not directly linked to a form of energy other than chemiosmotic energy.
