| slc2a2Gene Symbol: slc2a2 Description: solute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter), member 2 Alias: glut2, wu:fb62h10, solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 2, zglut2 Species: zebrafish Castillo J, Crespo D, Capilla E, Diaz M, Chauvigné F, Cerdà J, et al. Evolutionary structural and functional conservation of an ortholog of the GLUT2 glucose transporter gene (SLC2A2) in zebrafish. Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol. 2009;297:R1570-81 pubmed publisher
In mammals, GLUT2 plays an essential role in glucose homeostasis. From an evolutionary perspective, relatively little is known about the biology of GLUT2, or other GLUTs, in nonmammalian vertebrates... Ngan A, Wang Y.

..Human FOXN3 binds DNA sequences in the human MYC and zebrafish mycb loci. We conclude that the rs8004664 risk allele drives excessive expression of FOXN3 during fasting and that FOXN3 regulates fasting blood glucose. ..
