Abstract
The invention discloses a chimeric GLUT transporter including a GLUT receptor polypeptide fused to a domain of a detectable heterologous polypeptide and cells expressing such reporter constructs. Cells expressing a detectably-tagged chimeric GLUT transporter are used in methods of screening candidate compounds for their ability to agonize or antagonize an interaction between a ligand and a receptor, e.g., insulin. In addition, a 30 amino acid intracellular retention sequence is disclosed.
