Gene nameSLC1A7
Protein nameAmino acid transporter
Excitatory amino acid transporter 5 (Retinal glutamate transporter) (Solute carrier family 1 member 7)
SynonymsEAAT5
DescriptionFUNCTION: Sodium-dependent, high-affinity amino acid transporter that mediates the uptake of L-glutamate and also L-aspartate and D-aspartate. Functions as a symporter that transports one amino acid molecule together with two or three Na(+) ions and one proton, in parallel with the counter-transport of one K(+) ion . Acts primarily as an inhibitory glutamate-gated chloride channel being a major inhibitory presynaptic receptor at mammalian rod bipolar cell axon terminals. Glutamate binding gates a large Cl(-) conductance that mediates inhibition, affecting visual processing in the retina (By similarity). .
