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).
