Entrez ID Entrez Gene ID - the GENE ID in NCBI Gene database.	246213
Gene name Gene Name - the full gene name approved by the HGNC.	Solute carrier family 17 member 8
Gene symbol Gene Symbol - the official gene symbol approved by the HGNC.	SLC17A8
Synonyms (NCBI Gene) Gene synonyms aliases	DFNA25, VGLUT3
Chromosome Chromosome number	12
Chromosome location Chromosomal Location - indicates the cytogenetic location of the gene or region on the chromosome.	12q23.1
Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.	This gene encodes a vesicular glutamate transporter. The encoded protein transports the neurotransmitter glutamate into synaptic vesicles before it is released into the synaptic cleft. Mutations in this gene are the cause of autosomal-dominant nonsyndromi
