In the firsl series of experiments to apply voltage-clamp analysis to a mammalian monoamine carrier, the authors demonstrated that transport-associated, leak, and transient currents are associated with expression of the rat serotonin transporter (rSERT) in Xenopus oocytes. The results of these studies strongly support the contention that the serotonin transporter shares several properties with ionic channels, and that some of rSERTs electrical properties differ markedly from those of the related GABA transporter (GAT1) protein [15].

J Exp Biol 1985, 198:2197-2212. Comparisons of norepinephrine uptake and steady-stale currents in a mammalian cell line suggest that large differences between charge and substrate fluxes exist, indicating that human norepinephrine transporter (hNETl may be associated with an ionic conductance not stoichiometrically coupled to transport. Leak and transient currents also attributable to hNET were observed.

Analyses of whole-cell recordings from HEK293 cells expressing GAT1 revealed complex modes of transporter function. The authors suggest thai the ions bind asymmetrically on different sides of the membrane, and hypothesize that the carrier is a pore with internal and external gates.

A larger AMPA receptor-mediated current and a smaller transporter-mediated current were observed in response to the application of glutamate to islands of glia in a hippocampal microculture preparation. The evidence provided supports the contention that currents mediated by glutamate Irans-porters are of sufficient magnitude to depolarize glia following neuronal stimulation.
