VGAT is present in both GABAergic and glycinergic neurons, with its expression limited to the brain (1,2). It can also recognize Î²-alanine as a substrate (2). Recently, tau accumulation, as found in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients, has been shown to selectively suppress the expression of the intracellular VGAT (3). At the same time, VGAT activation can help with anxiety exacerbated by AD pathology (4).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nGABA and glycine transporter; hVIAAT; SLC32A1; solute carrier family 32 (GABA vesicular transporter), member 1; Solute carrier family 32 member 1; solute carrier family 32, member 1; Vesicular GABA transporter; Vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter; VGAT; VIAAT\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 57\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799901196457,"sku":"77460S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-77460s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
