Functional comparisons of three glutamate transporter subtypes cloned from human motor cortex

…, JI Wadiche, GH Murdoch, MP Kavanaugh… - Journal of …, 1994 - Soc Neuroscience
Reuptake plays an important role in regulating synaptic and extracellular concentrations of
glutamate. Three glutamate transporters expressed in human motor cortex, termed EAAT1, …

Excitatory amino acid transporter 5, a retinal glutamate transporter coupled to a chloride conductance

JL Arriza, S Eliasof, MP Kavanaugh… - Proceedings of the …, 1997 - National Acad Sciences
Although a glutamate-gated chloride conductance with the properties of a sodium-dependent
glutamate transporter has been described in vertebrate retinal photoreceptors and bipolar …

Flux coupling in a neuronal glutamate transporter

N Zerangue, MP Kavanaugh - Nature, 1996 - nature.com
SYNAPTIC transmission is commonly terminated by diffusion and reuptake of neurotransmitter
from the synaptic cleft. Glutamate reuptake prevents neurotoxicity and sets the lower limit …

Cell-surface receptors for gibbon ape leukemia virus and amphotropic murine retrovirus are inducible sodium-dependent phosphate symporters.

MP Kavanaugh, DG Miller, W Zhang… - Proceedings of the …, 1994 - National Acad Sciences
Cell surface receptors for gibbon ape leukemia virus (Glvr-1) and murine amphotropic retrovirus
(Ram-1) are distinct but related proteins having multiple membrane-spanning regions. …

Calcium-activated potassium channels expressed from cloned complementary DNAs

JP Adelman, KZ Shen, MP Kavanaugh, RA Warren… - Neuron, 1992 - cell.com
Calcium-activated potassium channels were expressed in Xenopus oocytes by injection of
RNA transcribed in vitro from complementary DNAs derived from the s/o locus of Drosophila …

Ion fluxes associated with excitatory amino acid transport

JI Wadiche, SG Amara, MP Kavanaugh - Neuron, 1995 - cell.com
Flux of substrate and charge mediated by three cloned excitatory amino acid transporters
widely expressed in human brain were studied in voltage-clamped Xenopus oocytes. …

Multiple ionic conductances of the human dopamine transporter: the actions of dopamine and psychostimulants

…, SJ Zhu, NR Zahniser, MP Kavanaugh… - Journal of …, 1997 - Soc Neuroscience
Electrophysiological and pharmacological studies of a cloned human dopamine transporter
(hDAT) were undertaken to investigate the mechanisms of transporter function and the …

Cell-surface receptor for ecotropic murine retroviruses is a basic amino-acid transporter

H Wang, MP Kavanaugh, RA North, D Kabat - Nature, 1991 - nature.com
THE complementary DNA sequence encoding the cell-surface receptor for ecotropic host-range
murine retroviruses (ecoR) shows that it contains 622 amino acids and 14 hydrophobic …

Kinetics of a human glutamate transporter

JI Wadiche, JL Arriza, SG Amara, MP Kavanaugh - Neuron, 1995 - cell.com
Currents mediated by a glutamate transporter cloned from human motor cortex were
measured in Xenopus oocytes. In the absence of glutamate, voltage jumps induced Na÷-dependent …

Cloning and expression of a human neutral amino acid transporter with structural similarity to the glutamate transporter gene family

JL Arriza, MP Kavanaugh, WA Fairman, YN Wu… - Journal of Biological …, 1993 - ASBMB
A cDNA was isolated from human brain that encodes an amino acid sequence 34-39%
identical to previously published glutamate transporter sequences. Injection of RNA transcribed …
