Gene: SLC6A1

Alternate names for this Gene: GABATHG|GABATR|GAT1|MAE

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter that localizes to the plasma membrane. The encoded protein removes GABA from the synaptic cleft, restoring it to presynaptic terminals.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 3

Location in Chromosome : 3p25.3

Description of this Gene: solute carrier family 6 member 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
