Description

GABA is a major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. GABA modulates neuronal excitability throughout the nervous system. Disruption of GABA neurotransmission leads to many neurological diseases including epilepsy and a general anxiety disorder. GABA is synthesized by two distinct enzymes GAD67 and GAD65 that differ in their cellular localization, functional properties and co-factor requirements. GABA synthesized by GAD65 is used for neurotransmission whereas GABA synthesized by GAD67 is used for processes other than neurotransmission such as synaptogenesis and protection against neuronal injury. GABA is loaded into synaptic vesicle with the help of vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter or VGAT. GAD65 and VGAT are functionally linked at the synaptic vesicle membrane and GABA synthesized by GAD65 is preferentially loaded into the synaptic vesicle over GABA synthesized in cytoplasm by GAD67.The GABA loaded synaptic vesicles are docked at the plasma membrane with the help of the SNARE complexes and primed by interplay between various proteins including Munc18, complexin etc. Release of GABA loaded synaptic vesicle is initiated by the arrival of action potential at the presynaptic bouton and opening of N or P/Q voltage gated Ca2+ channels. Ca2+ influx results in Ca2+ binding by synaptobrevin, which is a part of the SNARE complex that also includes SNAP25 and syntaxin, leading to synaptic vesicle fusion. Release of GABA in the synaptic cleft leads to binding of GABA by the GABA receptors and post ligand binding events.Original Pathway at Reactome: http://www.reactome.org/PathwayBrowser/#DB=gk_current&FOCUS_SPECIES_ID=48887&FOCUS_PATHWAY_ID=888590

REACT_13561 (Reactome) The plasma membrane transport protein SLC6A12 (BGT-1) mediates the uptake of GABA (gamma-aminobutyrate) and betaine and, less efficiently, of diminobutyrate (DABA) and beta-alanine. Together with each amino acid molecule, 3 sodium ions and 2 chloride ions are taken up. In the body, SLC6A12 is expressed in the proximal tubules of the kidney and cells of the central nervous system (Rasola et al. 1995; Matskevitch et al. 1999).
REACT_20659 (Reactome) Four transporters mediate GABA uptake in the brain, GAT1-3 and BGT1. They terminates the action of GABA by high affinity sodium-dependent reuptake into presynaptic terminals. Transport of GABA by GAT1-3 is proposed to be accompanied by 2Na+ ions and 1 Cl- ion (Loo DD et al, 2000).

SLC6A1 encodes a sodium- and chloride-dependent GABA transporter 1, GAT1, which is the predominant GABA transporter in brain. It is widely distributed in the brain and co-localized to GABAergic neurons (Nelson H et al, 1990). SLC6A13 encodes a sodium- and chloride-dependent GABA transporter 2, GAT2, which is localized to GABAergic neurons in the brain. It is also found in retina, liver and kidney (Christiansen B et al, 2007). SLC6A11 encodes a sodium- and chloride-dependent GABA transporter 3, GAT3. It is expressed in the brain and localizes to GABAergic neurons (Borden LA et al, 1994).
REACT_23813 (Reactome) GABA synaptic vesicles are fused to the presynaptic terminal membrane with the help of SNARE complex proteins, synaptobrevin located in the synaptic vesicle, SNAP 25 and syntaxin located in the plasma membrane. Complexin optimizes partially assembled SNARES for Ca2+ dependent exocytosis. Fusion of the synaptic vesicle is triggered by the influx of Ca2+ through N, P/Q Ca2+ channels, which binds to synaptobrevin on the synaptic vesicles triggering a series of steps leading to fusion of the synaptic vesicle to the presynatic terminal membrane and release of GABA.
REACT_23866 (Reactome) GAD65 or GAD2 is concentrated in the nerve terminal region in the neurons and is involved in the synthesis of GABA which is used as a neurotransmitter.
REACT_23937 (Reactome) GAD1 or GAD67 is evenly spread throghout the neuronal cytoplasm and is invoved in GABA synthesis that is used for synaptogenesis, in protection against neural injury and as energy source through GABA shunt.
REACT_23968 (Reactome) GABA is loaded into the synaptic vesicle by inihibitory amino acid transport, VIAAT or VGAT.
REACT_23973 (Reactome) GABA loaded synaptic vesicles are docked at the presynaptic terminal membrane by a number of proteins including Rab3a, RIM (Rab3a interaction protein) and Munc 13. The docked GABA vesicles are primed by the SNARE complex that includes synaptobrevin, SNAP 25 and syntaxin1.
REACT_23980 (Reactome) GABA is converted to succinate semialdehyde by 4-aminobutyrate aminotransferase
REACT_24017 (Reactome) Succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) converts succinate semialdehyde, in a final step of GABA degradation, into succinate. SSADH uses one water molecule and one molecule of NAD+ per molecule of succinyate semialdehyde.
