Target Details for SLC6A1

Target: SLC6A1 (GAT1) (GABA Transporter 1 (GAT1))

Alternative Name: SLC6A1

Background:

Synonyms: Sodium- and chloride-dependent GABA transporter 1,GAT-1,Solute carrier family 6 member 1,SLC6A1,GABATR, GABT1, GAT1,

Tissue Specificity: Expressed in many tissues, highest levels in skeletal muscle.

Background: GABA transporter 1 (GAT1), also known as sodium- and chloride-dependent GABA transporter 1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC6A1 gene. GABA Transporter 1 uses Na+ and Cl- to create a gradient, which removes or adds GABA to extracellular spaces in the cerebrum and cerebellum. The stoichiometry for GABA Transporter 1 is 2 Na+: 1 Cl-: 1 GABA. The activity of GAT1 is largely dependent on the presence of Na+, while Cl- assists by increasing the ability for GAT-1 to uptake GABA.
