| Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 242607 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables L-glutamate transmembrane transporter activity; extracellularly glutamate-gated chloride channel activity; and glutamate:sodium symporter activity. Involved in L-glutamate transmembrane transport and chloride transmembrane transport. Acts upstream of or within monoatomic anion transmembrane transport. Located in photoreceptor cell terminal bouton and plasma membrane. Is active in glutamatergic synapse; postsynaptic membrane; and presynaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including cerebellum; mesenchyme of metanephros; and retina nuclear layer. Orthologous to human SLC1A7 (solute carrier family 1 member 7). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele display impaired temporal resolution in the retina. [provided by MGI curators] |
