Subcellular localization and molecular topology of the dopamine transporter in the striatum and substantia nigra
17 Nov 1997
Abstract excerpt
Plasma membrane transporters remove neurotransmitters from the extracellular space and have been postulated to terminate synaptic activity. Their specific roles in synaptic and nonsynaptic neurotransmission at a cellular level, however, remain unclear. We have determined the subcellular location of the dopamine transporter (DAT) by immunoperoxidase and immunogold electron microscopy, using monoclonal antibodies...
