Potential Rotation Projects

Project 1                Mapping glucose transporter ligand binding sites.

Project 2                Does the glucose transporter contain an internal disulfide bridge?

Project 3                Mapping intramolecular contacts within GLUT1.

Project 4                How does cell shape regulate glucose transport?

Project 5                Is there a glucose-dependent membrane ATPase?

Project 6                Is the glucose transporter asymmetric at physiological temperature?

Project 7                Using transporter chimeras to map specificity and functional domains.
