The plasma membrane monoamine transporter ( PMAT) is a low-affinity monoamine transporter protein which in humans is encoded by the SLC29A4 gene. [1] It is known alternatively as the human equilibrative nucleoside transporter-4 (hENT4). It was discovered in 2004 [2] and has been identified as a potential alternate target for treating various ...
Monoamine transporters ( MATs) are proteins that function as integral plasma-membrane transporters to regulate concentrations of extracellular monoamine neurotransmitters. The three major classes are serotonin transporters (SERTs), dopamine transporters (DATs), and norepinephrine transporters (NETs) and are responsible for the reuptake of their ...
Neurotransmitter transporter. Neurotransmitter transporters are a class of membrane transport proteins that span the cellular membranes of neurons. Their primary function is to carry neurotransmitters across these membranes and to direct their further transport to specific intracellular locations. There are more than twenty types of ...
Uniporter. Uniporters, also known as solute carriers or facilitated transporters, are a type of membrane transport protein that passively transports solutes (small molecules, ions, or other substances) across a cell membrane. [1] It uses facilitated diffusion for the movement of solutes down their concentration gradient from an area of high ...

Piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers ( PMUT) are MEMS -based piezoelectric ultrasonic transducers. Unlike bulk piezoelectric transducers which use the thickness-mode motion of a plate of piezoelectric ceramic such as PZT or single-crystal PMN-PT, PMUT are based on the flexural motion of a thin membrane coupled with a thin ...
PMAT. PMAT may refer to: Plasma membrane monoamine transporter (PMAT) Four phases of mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Prophase: Chromatin into chromosomes, the nuclear envelope break down, chromosomes attach to spindle fibres by their centromeres. Metaphase: Chromosomes line up along the metaphase plate (centre of the cell).
Dopamine transporter. The dopamine transporter ( DAT, also sodium-dependent dopamine transporter) is a membrane-spanning protein coded for in the human by the SLC6A3 gene (also known as DAT1 ), that pumps the neurotransmitter dopamine out of the synaptic cleft back into cytosol. In the cytosol, other transporters sequester the dopamine into ...
