EAATs(Glutamate transporters)
EAATs (Glutamate transporters, Excitatory amino-acid transporters,SLC1, GLT-1), being the most abundant subtype of glutamate transporter in the CNS, is a protein thatplays a key role in regulation of glutamate neurotransmission. and are sodium- and potassium-dependent members of the solute carrier family 6 (SLC1) found widely distributed throughout the brain. There are five EAAT subtypes, each with a specific primary distribution; EAAT1 (cerebellar glia), EAAT2 (forebrain glia), EAAT3 (cortical neurons), EAAT4 (cerebellar Purkinje neurons) and EAAT5 (retina).
