Abstract excerpt
Dopamine levels in the brain are controlled by the plasma membrane dopamine transporter (DAT). The amount of DAT at the cell surface is determined by the relative rates of its internalization and recycling. Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) leads to acceleration of DAT endocytosis. We have rec...
