Glucose Transporter
Glucose transporters are a wide group of membrane proteins that facilitate the transport of glucose over a plasma membrane. Glucose is a vital source of energy for all life.

Parameters with uncertainty
Thirteen isoforms of Glucose transporter (GLUT) exist in Mammalian cells to facilitate the uptake of glucose from extracellular fluid into the cell. However, in most of the literature the kinetic properties of GLUT 1-4 isoforms are only reported [4][5]. In our model value for the forward reaction is taken from the paper Modeling cancer glycolysis. The mean and std. dev. of for the reverse reaction is being averaged from the 4 isoforms of GLUT reported in Zhao et. al.<ref name="Zhao_2007">.
