Function
Transports L-glutamate and also L- and D-aspartate. Essential for terminating the postsynaptic action of glutamate by rapidly removing released glutamate from the synaptic cleft. Acts as a symport by cotransporting sodium. -

1. EAAT2 is a multi-pass membrane protein, the main transporter that clears the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate in the central nervous system. The bands around 180 kDa are multimers of EAAT2, which is consistent with what have been described in the literatures (PMID: 24569372 & 20193040).
2. EATT2 is primarily expressed in astrocytes but is also expressed in neurons of the retina and during fetal development(PMID:12176072).
