Gene: SLC6A9

Alternate names for this Gene: GCENSG|GLYT1

Gene Summary: The amino acid glycine acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. The protein encoded by this gene is one of two transporters that stop glycine signaling by removing it from the synaptic cleft.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1p34.1

Description of this Gene: solute carrier family 6 member 9

Type of Gene: protein-coding
