Abstract excerpt
Dopamine transporter (DAT) levels vary in normal subjects and deviate from the normal range in pathological states. We investigated mechanisms by which the DAT gene may influence DAT protein expression. As the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of the DAT gene varies with regard to length and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), we addressed whether the 3'-UTR of sequence-defined DAT alleles can differentially...
