A comparative review on the well-studied GAT1 and the understudied BGT-1 in the brain
γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS). Its homeostasis is maintained by neuronal and glial GABA transporters (GATs). The four GATs identified in humans are GAT1 (SLC6A1), GAT2 (SLC6A13), GAT3 (SLC6A11), and betaine/GABA transporter-...
