Description

Sodium-dependent glutamate/aspartate transporter 1 (GLAST-1) transports L-glutamate and also L- and D-aspartate. GLAST-1 is essential for terminating the postsynaptic action of glutamate by rapidly removing released glutamate from the synaptic cleft. GLAST-1 acts as a symport by cotransporting sodium. Defects in GLAST-1 are the cause of episodic ataxia type 6 (EA6). EA6 is characterized by episodic ataxia, seizures, migraine and alternating hemiplegia.
