Summary: Enables glutamate binding activity and high-affinity L-glutamate transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in D-aspartate import across plasma membrane and cellular response to cocaine. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including L-glutamate import across plasma membrane; gamma-aminobutyric acid biosynthetic process; and nervous system development. Located in several cellular components, including cell surface; neuron projection; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; connective tissue; eye; foregut; and genitourinary system. Used to study low tension glaucoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in episodic ataxia type 6. Orthologous to human SLC1A3 (solute carrier family 1 member 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
