| Abstract | We have isolated and partially sequenced a M(r) 160,000 glycoprotein whose rate of cycling to and from the adipocyte cell surface is enhanced by insulin in a manner apparently identical to the effect of insulin on GLUT4 cycling. Based on the protein sequence, we have prepared an antipeptide antibody against this protein, gp160. The antibody recognizes a M(r) 160,000 protein whose subcellular distribution is identical to that of GLUT4. This was determined by three separate criteria: (i) Western blotting of fractionated adipocyte membranes from cells exposed to insulin or not, (ii) adsorption of vesicles with anti-GLUT4 antibodies followed by Western blotting, and (iii) separation of microsomal vesicles by sucrose velocity and density gradients. By all three criteria, GLUT4 and gp160 are completely colocalized in rat fat cells. Moreover, gp160 can be detected by Western blot only in fat and cardiac and skeletal muscles and was absent from all other tissues tested. Thus, gp160 is an additional marker for physiologically important, insulin-sensitive glucose transport. Its further study at the protein and DNA level may reveal information about the mechanistic details of insulin-activated GLUT4 translocation as well as information concerning the tissue-specific expression of GLUT4 and gp160. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
