Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP02057
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Sodium- and chloride-dependent betaine transporter
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. BGT-1
  2. Na(+)/Cl(-) betaine/GABA transporter
  3. Solute carrier family 6 member 12
Gene Name SLC6A12
Protein Type Transporter
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in gamma-aminobutyric acid:sodium symporter ac
Specific Function Transports betaine and GABA. May have a role in regulation of GABAergic transmission in the brain through the reuptake of GABA into presynaptic terminals, as well as in osmotic regulation.
