Glutamate transporter. Glutamate transporters are a family of neurotransmitter transporter proteins that move glutamate â the principal excitatory neurotransmitter â across a membrane. The family of glutamate transporters is composed of two primary subclasses: the excitatory amino acid transporter (EAAT) family and vesicular glutamate transporter (VGLUT) family.
Also known as the bulbourethral glands, are located on either side of the urethra just below the prostate gland and their ducts open into the urethra. They secrete thick mucus acting as a lubricant.he ejaculatory duct in the seminal vesicles passes through the prostate gland and enters the urethra. Glands located at the base of the urinary bladder, opening into the vas deferens as it joins the urethra.
The prostate gland is located just below a man's bladder and surrounds the top portion of the tube that drains urine from the bladder (urethra).
