Résumé

Mammalian γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter subtype 1 (GAT-1) is a specific transporter for GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter in GABA-ergic neurons. GAT-1 belongs to the GAT group, in which five related transporters, GAT-2, GAT-3, GAT-4, CT1, and TAUT are known in mammals. By contrast, the deep-sea mussel, Bathymodiolus septemdierum has only two GAT group members, BsGAT-1 and BsTAUT, and their function in environmental adaptation is of interest to better understand the physiology of deep-sea organisms. Compared with BsTAUT, the function of BsGAT-1 is unknown. Here, we report the functional characterization of BsGAT-1. Analyses of BsGAT-1 expressed in Xenopus oocytes showed that it could transport GABA in a Na
