Its <scene name='77/777707/Hydrophobic_binding_sites/2'>Hydrophobic Binding Sites</scene> are Leucine, Alanine, Phenylalanine, Isoleucine. Its <scene name='77/777707/Hydrophilic_binding_sites/1'>Hydrophilic Binding Sites</scene> are Serine, Glutamic Acid, Arginine, Threonine. The interactions between the hydrophobic and hydrophylic groups allow GLUT3 to bind to octylglucose neopentylglycol and cholesterol hemisuccinate. Both of these substrates have polar and non-polar regions; they are precursors to simpler sugars.

The protein's <scene name='77/777707/Non_polar_scene/1'>Non Polar Regions</scene> are understandably located on the exterior surface, since the complex is embedded in the lipid membrane.

This Sandbox is Reserved from January through July 31, 2018 for use in the course HLSC322: Principles of Genetics and Genomics taught by Genevieve Houston-Ludlam at the University of Maryland, College Park, USA. This reservation includes Sandbox Reserved 1311 through Sandbox Reserved 1430.
To get started:
  • Click the edit this page tab at the top. Save the page after each step, then edit it again.
  • Click the 3D button (when editing, above the wikitext box) to insert Jmol.
  • show the Scene authoring tools, create a molecular scene, and save it. Copy the green link into the page.
  • Add a description of your scene. Use the buttons above the wikitext box for bold, italics, links, headlines, etc.
