2.A.22.1.4
Antidepressant- and cocaine-sensitive dopamine transporter, T23G5.5 (Km for dopamine, 1.2 µM; dependent on extracellular Na+ and Cl-; blocked by cocaine and D-amphetamine) (Jayanthi et al. 1998) (interacts with syntaxin 1A to regulate channel activity and dopaminergic synaptic transmission; Carvelli et al., 2008).  It is blocked by the neurotoxins 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) and 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion, and neuron-specific toxin suppressor mutants have been isolated (Nass et al. 2005).  Amphetamine exposure during embryogenesis changes expression and function of the dopamine transporter in Caenorhabditis elegans offspring (Ambigapathy et al. 2024).
