About SLC1A1

Cytogenetic location: 9p24.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 9:4,490,468-4,587,469 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 251 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Biased expression in small intestine (RPKM 11.7), kidney (RPKM 8.4) and 12 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the high-affinity glutamate transporters that play an essential role in transporting glutamate across plasma membranes. In brain, these transporters are crucial in terminating the postsynaptic action of the neurotransmitter glutamate, and in maintaining extracellular glutamate concentrations below neurotoxic levels. This transporter also transports aspartate, and mutations in this gene are thought to cause dicarboxylicamino aciduria, also known as glutamate-aspartate transport defect.
