Entrez gene ID | | 6538 |
Official gene symbol | | SLC6A11 |
Full name | | solute carrier family 6 (neurotransmitter transporter, GABA), member 11 |
Aliases | | ,GAT-3,GAT3,GAT4, |
Gene summary | | Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a major inhibitory neurotransmitter. GABAergic neurotransmission is terminated by the uptake of GABA into the presynaptic terminal and the surrounding astroglial cells by sodium-dependent transporters, such as SLC6A11 (Borden et al., 1994 [PubMed 7874447]).[supplied by OMIM] |
