Glucose membrane transporter model, molecular model. The movement of glucose and other simple carbohydrates into and out of a cell is accomplished by a set of membrane transport proteins that allow polar carbohydrate molecules to cross the non-polar lipid bilayer of the membrane. Shown here is one of several glucose transport proteins embedded in a stylized patch of membrane. Atoms are colour-coded: carbon is black; hydrogen is white; and oxygen is red. | |
