The GLUT1 transporter also has three proposed ATP-binding sites. The lone <scene name='91/910668/Glut1_atp_binding_1/3'>extracellular ATP-binding site</scene> is proposed to be comprised of the residues Gly111, Phe112, Ser113, Lys114, Leu115, Gly116, Lys117, and Ser118. This is a domain consistent with Walker Motif A (G-X-X-G/X-X-G-K-T/X). The <scene name='91/910668/Glut1_atp_binding_2/3'>second ATP-binding site</scene> is one of two in the cytoplasmic portion of the protein. The residues comprising this ATP-binding site are Lys225, Ser226, Val227, Leu228, and Lys229. The <scene name='91/910668/Atp_binding_site_3/5'>third ATP-binding site</scene>, also localized to the cytoplasm, is comprised of the amino acids Gly332, Arg 333, Arg334, Thr335, Leu336, His337, and Leu338. This sequence is consistent with Walker Motif B (G-X-X-X-L-X-X).<ref>PMID:11425315</ref> As mentioned earlier in the page, both Walker motifs A and B are highly conserved. Some studies on GLUT1 show that ATP binding to the cytosolic domains causes C-terminus binding to the C-terminal side of the intracellular loop of the protein, preventing substrate import.

GLUT1, and other glucose transporters, have an <scene name='91/910668/Ich_domain_1/1'>intracellular helices (ICH) domain</scene>. The ICH domain of GLUT1 may play a role in stabilizing the outward-facing conformation of the enzyme based on computer modeling in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MODELLER MODELLER].<ref>PMID:25919356</ref> Two residues of interest in the ICH domain are Arg212 and Asp240. These residues are hypothesized to participate in hydrogen bonding between the ICH domain and transmembrane domains of the protein with the cumulative effect of stabilizing the outward-facing conformation.

== Summary ==

GLUT1 is a glucose transporter expressed throughout the body. Increased expression of the protein is noted in tissues such as blood-brain barrier, the placenta, and the retina. GLUT1 works in conjunction with other solute carrier proteins to ensure that metabolically-demanding tissues receive a steady supply of substrates for ATP production. GLUT1 is implicated in a variety of pathologies such as GLUT1 deficiency syndrome, cancer, diabetes, and more. Dozens of studies on GLUT1 structure have revealed domains important in glucose binding and possibly allosteric regulation. Further research is necessary to fully understand GLUT1 function, but progress in biochemistry has provided many clues as to how GLUT1 works.
