Gene:
solute carrier family 6 (neurotransmitter transporter, L-proline), member 7
Gene ID:
208359
Symbol:
SLC6A7
Species:
1000
Description:
This gene is a member of the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurotransmitter gene family and encodes a high-affinity mammalian brain L-proline transporter protein. This transporter protein differs from other sodium-dependent plasma membrane carriers by its pharmacological specificity, kinetic properties, and ionic requirements.
