SLC6A4
geneOn this page
Also known as 5-HTTSERT1
Summary
SLC6A4 (solute carrier family 6 member 4, HGNC:11050) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 17q11.2, encoding Sodium-dependent serotonin transporter (P31645). Serotonin transporter that cotransports serotonin with one Na(+) ion in exchange for one K(+) ion and possibly one proton in an overall electroneutral transport cycle.
This gene encodes an integral membrane protein that transports the neurotransmitter serotonin from synaptic spaces into presynaptic neurons. The encoded protein terminates the action of serotonin and recycles it in a sodium-dependent manner. This protein is a target of psychomotor stimulants, such as amphetamines and cocaine, and is a member of the sodium:neurotransmitter symporter family. A repeat length polymorphism in the promoter of this gene has been shown to affect the rate of serotonin uptake. There have been conflicting results in the literature about the possible effect, if any, that this polymorphism may play in behavior and depression.

Function. Serotonin transporter that cotransports serotonin with one Na(+) ion in exchange for one K(+) ion and possibly one proton in an overall electroneutral transport cycle. Transports serotonin across the plasma membrane from the extracellular compartment to the cytosol thus limiting serotonin intercellular signaling. Essential for serotonin homeostasis in the central nervous system. In the developing somatosensory cortex, acts in glutamatergic neurons to control serotonin uptake and its trophic functions accounting for proper spatial organization of cortical neurons and elaboration of sensory circuits. In the mature cortex, acts primarily in brainstem raphe neurons to mediate serotonin uptake from the synaptic cleft back into the pre-synaptic terminal thus terminating serotonin signaling at the synapse. Modulates mucosal serotonin levels in the gastrointestinal tract through uptake and clearance of serotonin in enterocytes. Required for enteric neurogenesis and gastrointestinal reflexes. Regulates blood serotonin levels by ensuring rapid high affinity uptake of serotonin from plasma to platelets, where it is further stored in dense granules via vesicular monoamine transporters and then released upon stimulation. Mechanistically, the transport cycle starts with an outward-open conformation having Na1(+) and Cl(-) sites occupied. The binding of a second extracellular Na2(+) ion and serotonin substrate leads to structural changes to outward-occluded to inward-occluded to inward-open, where the Na2(+) ion and serotonin are released into the cytosol. Binding of intracellular K(+) ion induces conformational transitions to inward-occluded to outward-open and completes the cycle by releasing K(+) possibly together with a proton bound to Asp-98 into the extracellular compartment. Na1(+) and Cl(-) ions remain bound throughout the transport cycle. Additionally, displays serotonin-induced channel-like conductance for monovalent cations, mainly Na(+) ions. The channel activity is uncoupled from the transport cycle and may contribute to the membrane resting potential or excitability.
Subunit / interactions. Monomer or homooligomer. Interacts with TGFB1I1. Interacts with SEC23A, SEC24C and PATJ. Interacts with NOS1; the interaction may diminish the cell surface localization of SERT in the brain and, correspondingly, reduce serotonin reuptake. Interacts with filamentous actin and STX1A. Interacts (via the N-terminus) with STX1A (via the H3 domain); this interaction regulates SLC4A6 channel conductance. Interacts (via C-terminus) with SCAMP2; the interaction is direct and retains transporter molecules intracellularly. Interacts with ITGAV:ITGB3. Interacts (via C-terminus) with ITGB3; this interaction regulates SLC6A4 trafficking.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Endomembrane system. Endosome membrane. Synapse. Cell junction. Focal adhesion. Cell projection. Neuron projection.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in platelets (at protein level).
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylation at Thr-276 increases 5-HT uptake and is required for cGMP-mediated SERT regulation.
Polymorphism. A polymorphism in the promoter region (5-HTT gene-linked polymorphic region, 5-HTTLPR) is located approximately 1 kb upstream of the transcription initiation site and is composed of 16 repeat elements. The polymorphism consists of a 44-bp insertion or deletion involving repeat elements 6 to 8. The short allele is associated with lower transcriptional efficiency of the promoter compared with the long allele. Over half of the Caucasian population has a short allele. Individuals with one or two copies of the short allele exhibit more depressive symptoms, diagnosable depression and suicidality in relation to stressful life events than individuals homozygous for the long allele. The 5-HTTLPR polymorphism may influence susceptibility to anxiety [MIM:607834]. The polymorphism Val-425 seems to be linked to a susceptibility to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) [MIM:164230]. Genetic variations in SLC6A4 determine the genetic susceptibility to alcoholism [MIM:103780]. Polymorphisms that alter SLC6A4 expression or function may increase the susceptibility to autism.
Miscellaneous. This protein is the target of psychomotor stimulants such as amphetamines or cocaine.
Similarity. Belongs to the sodium:neurotransmitter symporter (SNF) (TC 2.A.22) family. SLC6A4 subfamily.
