Also known as BNPIVGLUT1
Summary
SLC17A7 (solute carrier family 17 member 7, HGNC:16704) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19q13.33, encoding Vesicular glutamate transporter 1 (Q9P2U7). Multifunctional transporter that transports L-glutamate as well as multiple ions such as chloride, proton, potassium, sodium and phosphate.
The protein encoded by this gene is a vesicle-bound, sodium-dependent phosphate transporter that is specifically expressed in the neuron-rich regions of the brain. It is preferentially associated with the membranes of synaptic vesicles and functions in glutamate transport. The protein shares 82% identity with the differentiation-associated Na-dependent inorganic phosphate cotransporter and they appear to form a distinct class within the Na+/Pi cotransporter family.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 16)

(PMID:27029226)
- Study revealed susceptibility of glutamatergic nerve terminals to Abeta induced toxicity and underlined the importance of VGLUT1 in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease, as the decrease of this protein levels could increase the susceptibility to subsequent deleterious inputs by exacerbating Abeta induced neuroinflammation and synaptic plasticity disruption.

Function. Multifunctional transporter that transports L-glutamate as well as multiple ions such as chloride, proton, potassium, sodium and phosphate. At the synaptic vesicle membrane, mainly functions as an uniporter which transports preferentially L-glutamate but also phosphate from the cytoplasm into synaptic vesicles at presynaptic nerve terminals of excitatory neural cells. The L-glutamate or phosphate uniporter activity is electrogenic and is driven by the proton electrochemical gradient, mainly by the electrical gradient established by the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase across the synaptic vesicle membrane. In addition, functions as a chloride channel that allows a chloride permeation through the synaptic vesicle membrane that affects the proton electrochemical gradient and promotes synaptic vesicles acidification. Moreover, may function as a K(+)/H(+) antiport allowing to maintain the electrical gradient and to decrease chemical gradient and therefore sustain vesicular glutamate uptake. The vesicular K(+)/H(+) antiport activity is electroneutral. At the plasma membrane, following exocytosis, functions as a symporter of Na(+) and phosphate from the extracellular space to the cytoplasm allowing synaptic phosphate homeostasis regulation. The symporter activity is driven by an inside negative membrane potential and is electrogenic. Is necessary for synaptic signaling of visual-evoked responses from photoreceptors.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with SHANK3.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Secretory vesicle. Synaptic vesicle membrane. Cell membrane. Synapse. Synaptosome.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in several regions of the brain including amygdala, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, hippocampus, frontal lobe, medulla, occipital lobe, putamen and temporal lobe.
Activity regulation. Chloride channel activity is allosterically activated by lumenal H(+) and Cl(-) leading to synaptic vesicles acidification. The L-glutamate transport activity is allosterically activated by lumenal H(+) and Cl(-). The allosteric activation by H(+) efficiently prevents non-vesicular efflux across the plasma membrane, thereby restricting L-glutamate transport activity to acidic membranes such as synaptic vesicles.
Similarity. Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Sodium/anion cotransporter family. VGLUT subfamily.
