Short description: Protein found in humans
 Generic protein structure example |
Excitatory amino-acid transporter 5 (EAAT5) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC1A7 gene.[1][2]
EAAT5 is expressed predominantly in the retina, has high affinity for the excitatory amino acid L-glutamate. When stimulated by this amino acid, EAAT5 conducts chloride ions.[2]
