VGLUT1 functions as a glutamate/proton exchanger with chloride channel activity in hippocampal glutamatergic synapses
During neurotransmission synaptic vesicles are filled with glutamate by vesicular glutamate transporters (VGLUTs). Here, authors image intact neurons and show that in synaptic vesicles VGLUT functions as a glutamate/proton exchanger associated with a channel-like chloride conductance.
