Excitatory amino acid transporter 4, High affinity neuronal glutamate transporter, MGC33092, MGC43671, Sodium dependent glutamate/aspartate transporter, Solute carrier family 1 high affinity aspartate/glutamate transporter member 6, Solute carrier family
Excitatory Amino Acid Transporters (EAATs) are membrane-bound proteins that are localized in glial cells and pre-synaptic glutamatergic nerve endings. EAATs transport the excitatory neurotransmitters L-glutamate and D-aspartate, a process that is essenti
