RGT2 [YDL138W]

High-affinity glucose transporter RGT2; Plasma membrane high glucose sensor that regulates glucose transport; low affinity sesnor that contains 12 predicted transmembrane segments and a long C-terminal tail required for hexose transporter induction; phosphorylation of the tail by Yck1p/Yck2p facilitates binding to the HXT co-repressors, Mth1p and Std1p; RGT2 has a paralog, SNF3, that arose from the whole genome duplication
