Solute carrier family 32 (GABA vesicular transporter), member 1, also known as SLC32A1, is a human gene.

The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein involved in gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glycine uptake into synaptic vesicles. The encoded protein is a member of amino acid/polyamine transporter family II.
