Vesicular Glutamate Transporters (SLCA17 A6, 7, 8) Control Synaptic Phosphate Levels
Authors Cheret C, Ganzella M, Preobraschenski J, Jahn R, Ahnert-Hilger G Journal Cell Reports Citation Cell Rep. 2021 Jan 12;34(2):108623. Abstract Vesicular glutamate transporters (VGLUTs) fill synaptic vesicles with glutamate. VGLUTs were originally identified as sodium-dependent transporters of inorganic phosphate (Pi), but the physiological relevance of this activity remains unclear.
