Kinetic parameters for 5-HT and DA uptake kinetics by hSERT WT and hSERT Y95F mutant

Construct5-HTDA
Kmm)Vmax (pmol · well−1 · min−1)Kmm)Vmax (pmol · well−1 · min−1)
hSERT WT0.76 ± 0.130.66 ± 0.1578 ± 5.7***2.7 ± 0.65
hSERT Y95F0.57 ± 0.120.56 ± 0.1012 ± 1.02.4 ± 0.52
  • Uptake was performed in transiently transfected COS-7 cells plated in 96-well plates and allowed to proceed for 10 min at room temperature. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM; n = 8. Significance levels are indicated for hSERT WT versus hSERT Y95F by the two-tailed t test (***p < 0.001).
