Slc1a3 (or Eaat1) is widely distributed throughout the brain. It is a potassium and sodium-dependent, high-affinity amino acid transporter that mediates the uptake of L-glutamate, L-aspartate, and D-aspartate. It functions as a symporter that transports one amino acid molecule together with two or three Na+ ions and one proton, in parallel with the counter-transport of one K+ ion. It mediates Cl(-) flux that is not coupled to amino acid transport; this avoids the accumulation of negative charges due to aspartate and Na(+) symport. Slc1a3 plays a redundant role in the rapid removal of released glutamate from the synaptic cleft, which is essential for terminating the postsynaptic action of glutamate. Slc1a3 can play a role in Episodic Ataxia, Type 6 and Wernicke Encephalopathy. Anti-Slc1a3 Antibody is useful for researchers interested in SIDS, Glucose Metabolism, and Glutamate and Amino Acid Binding.
