Diversity in the Glucose Transporter-4 Gene (SLC2A4) in Humans Reflects the Action of Natural Selection along the Old-World Primates Evolution

BACKGROUND: Glucose is an important source of energy for living organisms. In vertebrates it is ingested with the diet and transported into the cells by conserved mechanisms and molecules, such as the trans-membrane Glucose Transporters (GLUTs). Members of this family have tissue specific expression...
