Regulation of the Glycine Transporter GLYT1 by microRNAs.
Title: Regulation of the Glycine Transporter GLYT1 by microRNAs.
Study demonstrated a biphasic response of GlyT1 expression during epileptogenesis with initial downregulation of GlyT1 after epileptogenesis-precipitating seizures followed by sustained pathological overexpression of GlyT1 in chronic epilepsy
Title: Glycine transporter 1 is a target for the treatment of epilepsy.
Study showed that glycine uptake mediated by GlyT1 and GlyT2 in astrocytes is modulated by BDNF
Title: BDNF, via truncated TrkB receptor, modulates GlyT1 and GlyT2 in astrocytes.
astrocytes express functional GlyT2, which challenge previous findings that those cells would express only GlyT1
Title: GlyT1 and GlyT2 in brain astrocytes: expression, distribution and function.
Double labeling for GLYT1 and synaptophysin of this vesicular fraction revealed that more of ninety percent of them were synaptic vesicles
Title: Localization of the glycine transporter GLYT1 in glutamatergic synaptic vesicles.
Inhibition of GlyT1 reduces the frequency of spontaneous network events in the hippocampus.
Title: Glycine transporter-1 controls nonsynaptic inhibitory actions of glycine receptors in the neonatal rat hippocampus.
Glycine transport by GLYT1 is inhibited by lithium whereas GLYT2 transport is stimulated, and this effect is more evident at increased glycine concentrations.
Title: Molecular basis of the differential interaction with lithium of glycine transporters GLYT1 and GLYT2.
study analyzed transient currents of recombinant GlyT1b variant protein and related their properties to characteristics of steady transport currents; numerical simulations show a simplified, 3-state model explains main features of GlyT1b operation
Title: Transient currents in the glycine cotransporter GlyT1 reveal different steps in transport mechanism.
In conclusion, GlyT1 most likely mediates glycine transport at the inner BRB and is expected to play an important role in regulating the glycine concentration in the neural retina.
Title: Characteristics of glycine transport across the inner blood-retinal barrier.
Results show that endocytosis is impaired in an ubiquitination-deficient cell line.
Title: Constitutive and regulated endocytosis of the glycine transporter GLYT1b is controlled by ubiquitination.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
