Kinetic properties of DAT Thr-53 mutants

WT, T53A, and T53D DAT forms were analyzed by RDEV to determine Michaelis constant (Km) and maximal velocity (Vmax) for DA uptake and AMPH-induced DA efflux. Results are expressed as mean ± S.E. from n = 4 (T53A) or n = 5 (WT and T53D) independent experiments.
