SemiSWEET half glucose transporter of 93 aas and 3 TMSs with an N-terminal amphipathic α-helix.  The protein occurs as a tight homodimer with the translocation channel between the two monomers.  The 3-d structure is known at 2.4 Å resolution revealing the outward open conformation (Xu et al. 2014). The occluded state of the Vibrio sp.
