Descrizione sintetica in italiano	Electrophysiological approaches to study, ion coupling and transport by NSS. The aim of this project is to comprehend how sodium electrochemical gradient energizes the translocation of the substrates in the various steps of the cycle of GABA transporters. The sodium ions and substrates interaction in each step will be investigated by examining with electrophysiological approaches the currents (pre-steady state, leakage and steady-state currents) recorded in different conditions.The biophysical data will be integrated with the uptake data: acquiring, in the same experiments, in a radiolabelled free approach. This study will help to develop a complete model of the transport cycle in the presence of the substrate and of the inhibitors. Wild type, mutants, and chimeric GABA transporters will be analyzed. for more information see (https://www.neurotrans.org/projects/project-6-electrophysiological-approaches-to-study-ion-coupling-and-transport-by-nss/)
