Na(+)-dependent gate dynamics and electrostatic attraction ensure substrate coupling in glutamate transporters
Excitatory amino acid transporters (EAATs) harness [Na(+)], [K(+)], and [H(+)] gradients for fast and efficient glutamate removal from the synaptic cleft. Since each glutamate is cotransported with three Na(+) ions, [Na(+)] gradients are the predominant driving force for glutamate uptake. We combine...
