Summary: Enables amine transmembrane transporter activity; chloride channel activity; and dopamine:sodium symporter activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to amphetamine; dopamine uptake involved in synaptic transmission; and regulation of locomotion involved in locomotory behavior. Located in neuron projection membrane; neuronal cell body membrane; and presynaptic membrane. Is expressed in dopaminergic neurons; tail; and in male. Used to study dopamine beta-hydroxylase deficiency. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including alcohol dependence; attention deficit hyperactivity disorder; classic dopamine transporter deficiency syndrome; mild cognitive impairment; and neurocirculatory asthenia. Orthologous to human SLC6A2 (solute carrier family 6 member 2) and SLC6A3 (solute carrier family 6 member 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

T23G5.5-transfected HeLa transports dopamine. Weaker activity for other biogenic amines (tyramine, octopamine, serotonin, norepinephrine). Inhibitors include the tricyclics imipramine and desipramine, cocaine, nomifensine, nisoxetine, and D-amphetamine.
