Pumps cytosolic monoamines including dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin, and histamine into synaptic vesicles. Requisite for vesicular amine storage prior to secretion via exocytosis. |Sugar tr| |MFS 1| |sequestering of neurotransmitter| |serotonin uptake| |serotonin:sodium symporter activity| |aminergic neurotransmitter loading into synaptic vesicle| |clathrin-sculpted monoamine transport vesicle membrane| |monoamine transmembrane transporter activity| |serotonin transport| |amine transport| |neurotransmitter loading into synaptic vesicle| |dopamine transport| |dopaminergic synapse| |catecholamine transport| |neurotransmitter reuptake| |monoamine transport| |negative regulation of reactive oxygen species biosynthetic process| |neurotransmitter uptake| |response to amphetamine| |response to amine| |terminal bouton| |response to bronchodilator| |ammonium transport| |negative regulation of reactive oxygen species metabolic process| |synaptic vesicle membrane| |regulation of reactive oxygen species biosynthetic process| |post-embryonic development| |neurotransmitter secretion| |signal release from synapse| |synaptic vesicle cycle| |synaptic vesicle| |vesicle-mediated transport in synapse| |organic hydroxy compound transport| |drug transport| |maintenance of location| |signal release| |regulation of reactive oxygen species metabolic process| |neurotransmitter transport| |locomotory behavior| |response to xenobiotic stimulus| |regulation of neurotransmitter levels| |anterograde trans-synaptic signaling| |chemical synaptic transmission| |trans-synaptic signaling| |synaptic signaling| |response to toxic substance| |behavior| |import into cell| |cation transport| |response to organonitrogen compound| |secretion by cell| |response to drug| |export from cell| |response to nitrogen compound| |cell-cell signaling| |secretion| |transmembrane transport| |ion transport| |integral component of plasma membrane| |negative regulation of biosynthetic process| |establishment of localization in cell| |nitrogen compound transport| |vesicle-mediated transport| |membrane| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
