You're right, it is a transporter, I think it is something allong these lines.
After dopamine activates the neuron, DAT transports it away, so that it cannot be used anymore.
At least, thats how I thought it worked.
Yeah, I think there are some studies to see how DAT is expressed in people with schitsohprenia.
I don't know if it came up with anything.
