Target
- FunctionMediates the uptake of glutamate into synaptic vesicles at presynaptic nerve terminals of excitatory neural cells. May also mediate the transport of inorganic phosphate.
- Tissue specificityExpressed in amygdala, cerebellum, hippocampus, medulla, spinal cord and thalamus.
- Involvement in diseaseDefects in SLC17A8 are the cause of deafness autosomal dominant type 25 (DFNA25) [MIM:605583]. DFNA25 is a form of sensorineural hearing loss. The expression of DFNA25 deafness is variable in terms of onset and rate of progression, with an age-dependent penetrance resembling an early-onset presbycusis, or senile deafness, a progressive bilateral loss of hearing that occurs in the aged.
- Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Sodium/anion cotransporter family. VGLUT subfamily.
- Cellular localizationCytoplasmic vesicle > secretory vesicle > synaptic vesicle membrane. Membrane. Cell junction > synapse > synaptosome.
