6570 |
Uniprot ID: |
VMAT1_HUMAN |
Specificity: |
Specific for VMAT1. |
Immunogen: |
A synthetic peptide from human VMAT1 conjugated to blue carrier protein was used as the antigen. The peptides shares about 75% identity with mouse and rat sequences. |
Function | Isoform 1: Electrogenic antiporter that exchanges one cationic monoamine with two intravesicular protons across the membrane of secretory and synaptic vesicles. Uses the electrochemical proton gradient established by the V-type proton-pump ATPase to accumulate high concentrations of monoamines inside the vesicles prior to their release via exocytosis. Transports catecholamines and indolamines with higher affinity for serotonin. Regulates the transvesicular monoaminergic gradient that determines the quantal size. Mediates presynaptic monoaminergic vesicle transport in the amygdala and prefrontal brain regions related with emotion processing in response to environmental stimuli. Isoform 2: Unable to uptake serotonin. |
