[edit] Insulin-insensitive GLUT4
possibility of a insulin-insensitive GLUT4... thought that might be relevant to the article.
"Thus, within this compartment, glucosamine altered subcellular localization of an insulin-insensitive pool of GLUT 4. If glucosamine can alter membrane localization of a GLUT 4 pool not affected by insulin signal transduction, it is reasonable to hypothesize that glucosamine could also affect localization of the insulin-responsive GLUT 4 pool as a mechanism responsible for impaired translocation."

[edit] Split GLUT4 article?
I'm considering splitting off GLUT4 into its own article to match the other GLUTs. GLUT4 is currently is a redirect to this article. Any reason I shouldn't do this? Oasisbob 19:47, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- Strong support of splitting off. --Arcadian 15:52, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
