Western blot of 20 ug of human caudate lysate showing specific immunolabeling of the ~88k DAT protein using Dopamine Transporter antibody, Extracellular Loop 2 .
Rabbit polyclonal antibody to Dopamine Transporter, Extracellular Loop 2The Dopamine Transporter (DAT) is responsible for the reaccumulation of dopamine after it has been released. DAT antibodies and antibodies for other markers of catecholamine biosynthesis are widely used as markers for dopaminergic and noradrenergic neurons in a variety of applications including depression, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease and drug abuse (Kish et al., 2001; Zhu et al., 2000; Zhu et al., 1999). Levels of DAT protein expression are altered by chronic drug administration (Wilson et al., 1996).
