Summary
Enables high-affinity glutamate transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in L-glutamate transmembrane transport. Located in several cellular components, including astrocyte projection; dendrite; and presynaptic membrane. Is integral component of plasma membrane. Part of membrane protein complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 41. Orthologous to human SLC1A2 (solute carrier family 1 member 2).

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.
