Local anesthetics and antipsychotic phenothiazine inhibit uptake of glucose by interacting nonspecifically with hexose transporter HXT1
Title: Local Anesthetics and Antipsychotic Phenothiazines Interact Nonspecifically with Membranes and Inhibit Hexose Transporters in Yeast.
Results show that Hxt1 transports 2-NBDG in a mechanism similar to human glucose transporters and, that some of the putative glucose-binding residues of Hxt1 are involved in endocytosis with N370 residue as critical for its stability and function.
Title: Assessing glucose uptake through the yeast hexose transporter 1 (Hxt1).
Data show that Pph3-Psy2 targets the glucose signal transducer protein Mth1, which is required for the dephosphorylation of Rgt1 upon glucose withdrawal, a critical event in the repression of HXT genes, which encode glucose transporters.
Title: Psy2 targets the PP4 family phosphatase Pph3 to dephosphorylate Mth1 and repress glucose transporter gene expression.
Association of the HXT1 mRNA with polysomes is regulated by SIT4.
Title: Expression of the glucose transporter HXT1 involves the Ser-Thr protein phosphatase Sit4 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Hxk2 is required for the high expression of HXT1.
Title: Different signalling pathways mediate glucose induction of SUC2, HXT1 and pyruvate decarboxylase in yeast.
TOR kinase pathway participates actively in the induction of HXT1 expression by glucose. Inhibition of the TOR kinase pathway by rapamycin treatment abolishes HXT1 glucose induction.
Title: TOR kinase pathway and 14-3-3 proteins regulate glucose-induced expression of HXT1, a yeast low-affinity glucose transporter.

Preferred Names: hexose transporter HXT1

NP_011962.1

Low-affinity glucose transporter of the major facilitator superfamily; expression is induced by Hxk2p in the presence of glucose and repressed by Rgt1p when glucose is limiting; HXT1 has a paralog, HXT6, what arose from the whole genome duplication
