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 [Source:SGD;Acc:S000002297]
Chromosome IV: 213,351-215,642 forward strand.
R64-1-1:BK006938.2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 325 orthologues and 31 paralogues.
