Targeting of dopamine transporter to filopodia requires an outward-facing conformation of the transporter
Abstract Dopamine transporter (DAT) has been shown to accumulate in filopodia in neurons and non-neuronal cells. To examine the mechanisms of DAT filopodial targeting, we used quantitative live-cell fluorescence microscopy, and compared the effects of the DAT inhibitor cocaine and its fluorescent an...

Abstract Dopamine transporter (DAT) has been shown to accumulate in filopodia in neurons and non-neuronal cells.

W63A did not bind JHC1-64, whereas R60A did, although less efficiently compared to the wild-type DAT.

Cocaine binding significantly increased the density of R60A, but not that of W63A, in filopodia. Further, zinc binding, known to stabilize the OF state, also increased R60A concentration in filopodia. Finally, amphetamine, that is thought to disrupt DAT OF conformation, reduced the concentration of wild-type DAT in filopodia. Altogether, these data indicate that OF conformation is required for the efficient targeting of DAT to, and accumulation in, filopodia. |
