We have established a simple procedure for the separation of intracellular pool(s) of glucose transporter isoform GLUT-4-containing vesicles from the surface sarcolemma and T tubule membranes of rat skeletal myocytes. This procedure enabled us to immunopurify intracellular GLUT-4-containing vesicles and to demonstrate that 20-30% of the receptors for insulin-like growth factor II/mannose 6-phosphate and transferrin are colocalized with GLUT-4 in the same vesicles. Using our new fractionation procedure as well as cell surface biotinylation, we have shown that these receptors are translocated from their intracellular compartment(s) to the cell surface along with GLUT-4 after insulin stimulation in vivo. Denervation causes a considerable downregulation of GLUT-4 protein in skeletal muscle but does not affect the level of expression of other known component proteins of the corresponding vesicles. Moreover, the sedimentation coefficient of these vesicles remains unchanged by denervation. We suggest that the normal level of GLUT-4 expression is not necessary for the structural organization and insulin-sensitive translocation of its cognate intracellular compartment.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).

D011990 Receptors, Transferrin Membrane glycoproteins found in high concentrations on iron-utilizing cells. They specifically bind iron-bearing transferrin, are endocytosed with its ligand and then returned to the cell surface where transferrin without its iron is released.
