Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables L-glutamate uniporter activity and inorganic anion transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in several processes, including L-glutamate transmembrane transport; neurotransmitter loading into synaptic vesicle; and phosphate ion transport. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including chemical synaptic transmission; long-term memory; and sequestering of neurotransmitter. Located in several cellular components, including cerebellar mossy fiber; presynaptic active zone; and synaptic vesicle membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; retina layer; and spinal cord dorsal horn. Orthologous to human SLC17A7 (solute carrier family 17 member 7).
