-aminobutyric acid
(GABAA and GABAC) receptors mediate fast
synaptic inhibition in the central nervous system. GABAC
receptors are expressed predominantly in the retina on bipolar cell
axon terminals, and are thought to mediate feedback inhibition from
GABAergic amacrine cells. Utilizing the yeast two-hybrid system, we
previously identified MAP1B as a binding partner of the
GABAC receptor
1 subunit. Here we describe the isolation of an additional
1 interacting protein: a novel C-terminal variant of the glycine transporter GLYT-1. We show that GLYT-1 exists as four
alternatively spliced mRNAs which encode proteins expressing one of
two possible intracellullar N- and C-terminal domains. Variants
containing the novel C terminus efficiently transport glycine when
expressed in COS cells, but with unusual kinetics. We have confirmed
the interaction between the novel C terminus and
1 subunit and
demonstrated binding in heterologous cells. This interaction may be
crucial for the integration of GABAergic and glycinergic
neurotransmission in the retina.
