GLUT _____, found on Liver and Kidney is a urate transporter

The major GAG synthesized by arterial smooth muscle cells is _____, which binds LDL

A _____ binding protein dynamin is involved in pinching off the vesicle formed in clathrin-mediated endocytosis

_____ is a phospholipid which is a component of the cell membrane and plays a key role in relationship to apoptosis.

_____ are transmembrane glycoproteins that attach to extracellular matrix constituents such as laminin and fibronectin

_____ 26 (MIP 26)/Aquaporin 0 in the lens is responsible for maintaining transparency by transporting water and glycerol across the lens.

The phospholipid _____ is composed of phosphatidylcholine

Exocytosis involves two families of proteins: _____, which help vesicles dock onto the membrane, and SNAREs, which facilitate membrane fusion.

_____ is a marker enzyme for plasma membrane
