Synonyms
BNPI, VGLUT1
Description
Solute carrier family 17 (vesicular glutamate transporter), member 7 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a vesicle-bound, sodium-dependent phosphate transporter that is specifically expressed in the neuron-rich regions of the brain. It is preferentially associated with the membranes of synaptic vesicles and functions in glutamate transport. The protein shares 82% identity with the differentiation-associated Na-dependent inorganic phosphate cotransporter and they appear to form a distinct class within the Na+/Pi cotransporter family.
