t

Drosophila melanogaster

tan (t) encodes a hydrolase involved in both the conversion of N-beta-alanyldopamine to dopamine in the cuticle and central nervous system, and the conversion of beta-alanylhistamine (carcinine) to histamine in the retina. It functions in vision, cuticular melanization, and neurotransmitter recycling.

snf-11

Caenorhabditis elegans

Enables gamma-aminobutyric acid:sodium:chloride symporter activity. Involved in gamma-aminobutyric acid transport. Located in neuron projection and neuronal cell body. Expressed in several structures, including GLR; enteric muscle; head mesodermal cell; neurons; and ventral nerve cord. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol dependence; myoclonic-atonic epilepsy; and temporal lobe epilepsy. Is an ortholog of human SLC6A1 (solute carrier family 6 member 1).
