    Description: Previous work has identified two families of proteins that transport classical neurotransmitters into synaptic vesicles, but the protein responsible for vesicular transport of the principal excitatory transmitter glutamate has remained unknown. We demonstrate that a protein that is unrelated to any known neurotransmitter transporters and that was previously suggested to mediate the Na(+)-dependent uptake of inorganic phosphate across the plasma membrane transports glutamate into synaptic vesicles. In addition, we show that this vesicular glutamate transporter, VGLUT1, exhibits a conductance for chloride that is blocked by glutamate.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bellocchio, E E -- Reimer, R J -- Fremeau, R T Jr -- Edwards, R H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 Aug 11;289(5481):957-60.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurology, University of California at San Francisco School of Medicine, 513 Parnassus Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94143-0435, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10938000" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Vesicular glutamate transporters (VGLUTs) 1 and 2 show a mutually exclusive distribution in the adult brain that suggests specialization for synapses with different properties of release. Consistent with this distribution, inactivation of the VGLUT1 gene silenced a subset of excitatory neurons in the adult. However, the same cell populations exhibited VGLUT1-independent transmission early in life. Developing hippocampal neurons transiently coexpressed VGLUT2 and VGLUT1 at distinct synaptic sites with different short-term plasticity. The loss of VGLUT1 also reduced the reserve pool of synaptic vesicles. Thus, VGLUT1 plays an unanticipated role in membrane trafficking at the nerve terminal.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fremeau, Robert T Jr -- Kam, Kaiwen -- Qureshi, Tayyaba -- Johnson, Juliette -- Copenhagen, David R -- Storm-Mathisen, Jon -- Chaudhry, Farrukh A -- Nicoll, Roger A -- Edwards, Robert H -- R01 EY001869/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Jun 18;304(5678):1815-9.
