The directed movement of amino acids into a cell or organelle. The directed movement of acidic amino acids, amino acids with a pH below 7, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 4-aminobutyrate), an amino acid which acts as a neurotransmitter in some organisms, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 4-aminobutyrate) into a cell or organelle. The directed movement of amino acids, organic acids containing one or more amino substituents, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The uptake of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 4-aminobutyrate) by neurons or glial cells. This process leads to inactivation and recycling of neurotransmitters. The directed movement of L-enantiomer amino acids into a cell or organelle. The directed movement of L-enantiomer amino acids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore.
