  "summary": "Inhibitory neurotransmission, essential for neural circuit homeostasis and proper neurological function, depends on the efficient sequestration of {gamma}-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glycine into synaptic vesicles. This critical process is mediated exclusively by the vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter (VIAAT). Despite extensive biochemical and physiological investigation, the molecular…",
