However, excess of Glu in the extracellular synaptic milieu leads to neuronal cell death by a process known as excitotoxicity.The extracellular levels of Glu are regulated by a family of high affinity plasma membrane transporters called excitatory amino acid transporters (EAATs) which are responsible for the re-uptake of Glu into the cells1,2.The EAAT family includes five members (EAAT1-EAAT5) that are members of the solute carrier family 1 (SLC1) of Na+-dependent transporters that also includes the neutral amino acid transporters ASCT1 and ASCT2.The Glu transporters present an unusual topology of eight transmembrane domains with two re-entrant loops and intracellular N- and C- termini. The transporter is likely assembled as a trimer where each monomer is a functional unit capable of binding the Glu substrate.The transport of Glu into the cells by the EAAT transporters is coupled to the Na+ and K+ electrochemical gradient as a driving force.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eMapping receptor\/channel localization across neuronal subtypes and subcellular compartments.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eLinking trafficking or surface expression changes to activity-dependent signaling and plasticity.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eUsing KO\/KD or blocking-peptide concepts to strengthen antibody-based target assignment.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eWestern blot (WB): compare target abundance\/size across lysates and conditions; consider isoforms\/PTMs.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eImmunohistochemistry (IHC): examine spatial distribution in tissue and relate signal to cell-type composition.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eImmunofluorescence\/ICC: assess subcellular localization and co-localization with markers in cells or sections.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eInterpretation typically benefits from comparing matched sample sets (e.g., treated vs control, WT vs KO\/KD) and using orthogonal readouts where feasible.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eIsoforms and post-translational modifications can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility across samples.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eCross-species signal may depend on epitope conservation; consult the provided homology note when selecting models.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003ePermeabilization, fixation, and antigen retrieval can change accessibility of intracellular vs extracellular epitopes.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eConceptual control: antigen preadsorption (blocking peptide) can help assess signal dependence on the immunogen region.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eProvided control suggestions: Negative control: BLP-GC023.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eApplication notes: see product-specific dilution\/usage notes and control concepts provided in the dataset.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication abbreviations:\u003c\/strong\u003e CBE- Cell-based ELISA, FC- Flow cytometry, ICC- Immunocytochemistry, IE- Indirect ELISA, IF- Immunofluorescence, IFC- Indirect flow cytometry, IHC- Immunohistochemistry, IP- Immunoprecipitation, LCI- Live cell imaging, N- Neutralization, WB- Western blot. \u003cstrong\u003eSpecies abbreviations:\u003c\/strong\u003e H- Human, M- Mouse, R- Rat.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended controls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blocking peptide: BLP-GC023; Negative control: BLP-GC023.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c!-- Sources (internal): - Alomone Labs product page scientific background (as provided in this catalog row) - UniProt Knowledgebase (target-level reference) - NCBI Gene (target-level reference) - General antibody validation principles (KO\/KD, peptide competition, isotype control concepts) --\u003e","brand":"Alomone Labs","offers":[{"title":"0.2 ml (Carrier Free) \/ 1","offer_id":53064829075821,"sku":"AGC-023-CF-0P2ML-1","price":994.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"0.2 ml \/ 1","offer_id":53064897003885,"sku":"AGC-023-0P2ML-1","price":795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 mcl \/ 1","offer_id":53064897036653,"sku":"AGC-023-50MCL-1","price":697.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/AGC-023_ept.gif?v=1772460976","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/anti-eaat3-eaac1-antibody-bha21300408","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
