Tm2 | Tropomyosin-2; Tropomyosin, in association with the troponin complex, plays a central role in the calcium dependent regulation of muscle contraction. May also regulate motor systems required to maintain nuclear integrity and apico-basal polarity during embryogenesis. (284 aa) | ||||
VGlut | Vesicular glutamate transporter, isoform A. (632 aa) | ||||
mGluR | Metabotropic glutamate receptor; G-protein coupled receptor for glutamate. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of down-stream effectors. (976 aa) | ||||
Gs2 | Glutamine synthetase 2 (Gs2) encodes an enzyme that converts glutamate to glutamine. It is expressed in the embryonic nervous system and regulates the size of glutamate neurotransmitter pools and synapse assembly. (373 aa) | ||||
Gs1 | Glutamine synthetase 1 (Gs1) encodes the mitochondrial enzyme that uses glutamate and ammonia as substrates to synthesize glutamine, which is a precursor of purine and pyrimidine synthesis. An adequate level of maternally supplied Gs1 product activity is necessary in the early embryonic development. High level of glutamine in mitochondria causes megamitochondrial formation in cells. (399 aa) | ||||
VAChT | Vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) encodes a vesicular transport protein necessary for packaging the neurotransmitter acetylcholine into synaptic vesicles; Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Vesicular transporter family. (578 aa) | ||||
VGAT | Vesicular GABA Transporter (VGAT) encodes an essential transporter that is responsible for packaging the neurotransmitter GABA into synaptic vesicles. (549 aa) |
