Explain the membrane dynamics of the glucose transporter, GLUT1, and how the structure dictates its function as a transporter. In your discussion, explain:
(a) How the primary structure and resulting secondary structure of GLUT 1 is stable as an integral membrane protein.
(b) How the secondary and tertiary structure accommodates the transport of the polar molecule, glucose, across the hydrophobic lipid bilayer.
(c) Draw a diagram depicting the conformational changes that GLUT1 is purported to execute in order to function as a glucose transporter.
