G-quadruplex formation at human DAT1 gene promoter: Effect of cytosine methylation
The dopamine transporter gene (DAT1), a recognized genetic risk factor for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is principally responsible for the regulation of dopamine synaptic levels and serves as a key target in many psychostimulants drugs.

Methylation Status of the DAT1 Dopamine Transporter Gene in Individuals With Cannabis Use Disorder: Associations With Personality Traits. [PDF]
This graphical abstract illustrates the relationship between DAT1 gene methylation, personality traits, and cannabis use disorder (CUD). In a sample of 490 study group (212 with CUD and 278 controls), methylation at 33 CpG sites within the DAT1 promoter region was assessed alongside personality traits using the NEO‐FFI and STAI.

Influence of DAT1 Promotor Methylation on Sports Performance [PDF]
In the mammalian genome, DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism involving the transfer of a methyl group onto the C5 position of the cytosine to form 5-methylcytosine. DNA methylation regulates gene expression by recruiting proteins involved in gene repression or by inhibiting the binding of transcription factors (TFs) to DNA.

There is considerable inter-individual variability in the rate at which working memory (WM) develops during childhood and adolescence, but the neural and genetic basis for these differences are poorly understood.

DRD4 and DAT1 Polymorphisms Modulate Human Gamma Band Responses [PDF]
Gamma oscillations (30-80 Hz) have been demonstrated to be important for perceptual and cognitive processes. Animal and in vitro studies have revealed possible underlying generation mechanisms of the gamma rhythm. However, little is known about the neurochemical modulation of these oscillations during human cognition.

SLC6A3 (DAT1) as a Novel Candidate Biomarker Gene for Suicidal Behavior [PDF]
It has been previously shown that the serotonin and dopamine neurotransmitter systems might influence the predisposition to suicidal behavior. This study aims to estimate the contribution of 11 polymorphisms in the genes SLC6A4 (5HTT), HTR1A, HTR2A, HTR1B, SLC6A3 (DAT1), DRD4, DRD2, COMT, and BDNF to suicidal behavior and severity of symptoms of ...

Dopamine inactivation efficacy related to functional DAT1 and COMT variants influences motor response evaluation. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Dopamine plays an important role in orienting, response anticipation and movement evaluation. Thus, we examined the influence of functional variants related to dopamine inactivation in the dopamine transporter (DAT1) and catechol-O ...

DRD4 and DAT1 in ADHD: Functional neurobiology to pharmacogenetics
Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common and potentially very impairing neuropsychiatric disorder of childhood. Statistical genetic studies of twins have shown ADHD to be highly heritable, with the combination of genes and gene by environment interactions accounting for around 80% of phenotypic variance. The initial molecular genetic

BackgroundThere is a growing number of studies showing interactions between genetic polymorphisms associated with dopaminergic neurotransmission and traumatic life events (TLEs) on a risk of psychotic-like experiences (PLEs).

The dopaminergic midbrain participates in human episodic memory formation: Evidence from genetic imaging [PDF]
Recent data from animal studies raise the possibility that dopaminergic neuromodulation promotes the encoding of novel stimuli. We investigated a possible role for the dopaminergic midbrain in human episodic memory by measuring how polymorphisms in ...
