Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Endomembrane system ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Endosome membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Cell junction, synapse . Cell junction, focal adhesion . Could be part of recycling endosomes (PubMed:16870614). Density of transporter molecules on the plasma membrane is itself regulated by STX1A (By similarity). Density of transporter molecules on the plasma membrane is also regulated by serotonin (PubMed:17506858). Density of transporter molecules seems to be modulated by ITGAV:ITGB3 (By similarity). . |
| Background: |
This gene encodes an integral membrane protein that transports the neurotransmitter serotonin from synaptic spaces into presynaptic neurons. The encoded protein terminates the action of serotonin and recycles it in a sodium-dependent manner. This protein is a target of psychomotor stimulants, such as amphetamines and cocaine, and is a member of the sodium:neurotransmitter symporter family. A repeat length polymorphism in the promoter of this gene has been shown to affect the rate of serotonin uptake and may play a role in sudden infant death syndrome, aggressive behavior in Alzheimer disease patients, and depression-susceptibility in people experiencing emotional trauma.
