SLC6A11 - solute carrier family 6 member 11 Gene
Also Known as GAT3; GAT4; GAT-3
Species: Homo sapiens
About SLC6A11
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 200 orthologues and 19 paralogues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 2.2), esophagus (RPKM 0.8) and 3 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a sodium-dependent transporter that uptakes gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), an inhibitory neurotransmitter, which ends the GABA neurotransmission. Defects in this gene may result in epilepsy, behavioral problems, or intellectual problems. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
