Background: VIAAT/SLC32A1

VIAAT (Vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter; also VGAT and SLC32A1) is a 56-58 kDa member of the amino acid/polyamine transporter 2 family of proteins. It is expressed in inhibitory neurons throughout the CNS, in both resting and activated lymphocytes, and in pancreatic alpha -cells (in rodent). VIAAT is believed to transport both GABA and glycine across synaptic vesicle membranes in an electrical and pH gradient-dependent manner. Once transported, these neurotransmitters are released at the presynaptic membrane, acting as inhibitory factors in the mature nervous system, and excitatory factors in the immature nervous system. Human VIAAT is a 525 amino acid (aa) 10-transmembrane nonglycosylated protein. The N-terminus (aa 1-133) and C-terminus (aa 511-525) are cytoplasmic. There is a 52 kDa short form that is not well characterized. Over aa 2-133, human VIAAT shares 95% aa identity with mouse VIAAT.
