SGLT1 is a high affinity Na + /glucose cotransporter that has an important role in transferring sugar across the epithelial cells of renal proximal tubules and of the intestine, in particular the small intestine. [11] [12] Na + /phosphate cotransporter (NaPi) – Sodium-phosphate cotransporters are from the SLC34 and SLC20 protein families ...
The Na–K–Cl cotransporter (NKCC) is a transport protein that aids in the secondary active transport of sodium, potassium, and chloride into cells. [1] In humans there are two isoforms of this membrane transport protein , NKCC1 and NKCC2 , encoded by two different genes ( SLC12A2 and SLC12A1 respectively).
SLC5A4, also known as SGLT3, is a member of the sodium-glucose cotransporter family. Unlike SGLT1 and SGLT2, which are efficient glucose transporters, SGLT3 functions primarily as a glucose sensor rather than a transporter. It has a low affinity for glucose and does not significantly contribute to glucose transport across cell membranes.
Sodium/glucose cotransporter 1 (SGLT1) also known as solute carrier family 5 member 1 is a protein in humans that is encoded by the SLC5A1 gene [4] [5] which encodes the production of the SGLT1 protein to line the absorptive cells in the small intestine and the epithelial cells of the kidney tubules of the nephron for the purpose of glucose uptake into cells.

Zinc transporter 8 (ZNT8) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC30A8 gene. [5] ZNT8 is a zinc transporter related to insulin secretion in humans. In particular, ZNT8 is critical for the accumulation of zinc into beta cell secretory granules and the maintenance of stored insulin as tightly packaged hexamers.

The sodium/iodide cotransporter, also known as the sodium/iodide symporter (NIS), [5] is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC5A5 gene. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] It is a transmembrane glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 87 k Da and 13 transmembrane domains , which transports two sodium cations (Na + ) for each iodide anion (I − ) into ...
SGLT2 is a member of the sodium glucose cotransporter family, which are sodium-dependent glucose transport proteins. SGLT2 is the major cotransporter involved in glucose reabsorption in the kidney. [6] SGLT2 is located in the early proximal tubule, and is responsible for reabsorption of 80-90% of the glucose filtered by the kidney glomerulus. [7]
