Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
The protein encoded by this gene is a sodium-dependent transporter that uptakes gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), an inhibitory neurotransmitter, which ends the GABA neurotransmission. Defects in this gene may result in epilepsy, behavioral problems, or int

Protein name Sodium- and chloride-dependent GABA transporter 3 (GAT-3) (Solute carrier family 6 member 11)
Protein function Mediates sodium- and chloride-dependent transport of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) (PubMed:7874447). Can also mediate transport of beta-alanine and to a lower extent that of taurine and hypotaurine (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P31650
