Automated Description
Enables gamma-aminobutyric acid:sodium:chloride symporter activity. Involved in gamma-aminobutyric acid transport. Located in neuron projection and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in body wall musculature; enteric muscle; head mesodermal cell; nervous system; and uterine muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol dependence and myoclonic-atonic epilepsy. Orthologous to human SLC6A1 (solute carrier family 6 member 1).
WB Description
snf-11 encodes an electrogenic, Na[+]/Cl[-]-coupled, high-affinity GABA transporter that is required in vivo for GABA uptake, and for normal aldicarb sensitivity; SNF-11 is orthologous to human SLC6A1 (OMIM:137165); SNF-11 is selective for GABA with a Kt of ~15 microM, has an EC50 value of 168 microM, is blocked by GAT1 inhibitor SKF89976A, and has a 2:1:1 stoichiometry of Na[+]:Cl[-]:GABA; SNF-11 is expressed in several GABAergic neurons, in some other non-GABAergic neurons of the head and retrovesicular ganglion (e.g., RID), and in muscle cells; snf-11(ok156) null mutants fail to show GABA uptake in at least some GABAergic cells, and in cell culture; snf-11(ok156) mutants exhibit GABA-dependent aldicarb resistance, and show abnormal head foraging and defecation in a genetically sensitized background (GABA-transport dependent, with an unc-25 null allele); while unsensitized snf-11(ok156) mutants have grossly normal phenotype, cell cultures from snf-11(ok156) embryos completely lack normal GABA uptake.
