This page is written in a way that is virtually impossible for a non-specialist to understand. For example, one can not tell if the transporter is a physical structure that moves the dopamine or a chemical that binds to it, or both. 66.245.159.152 23:21, 6 March 2007 (UTC)Andrew Hoerner

I'm currently working on a relatively large scale revamp/expansion of this page. It will include a lot more detail on the nature of the protein as well as the structure of the gene and some associations with diseases/disorders.Dylanalegria 19:35, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
