|
Function |
Transports glucose-6-phosphate from the cytoplasm to the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum. Forms with glucose-6- phosphatase the complex responsible for glucose production through glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Hence, it plays a central role in homeostatic regulation of blood glucose levels. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10026167}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000305}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Mostly expressed in liver and kidney.
