DNA methylation at the DAT promoter and risk for psychopathology. Intergenerational transmission between school-age youths and their parents in a community sample [PDF]
Background: The effect of gene polymorphisms and promoter methylation, associated with maladaptive developmental outcomes, vary depending on environmental factors (e.g., parental psychopathology).

Association between 5HTT, DAT1, and DRD4 and bipolar disorder in youth [PDF]
Bipolar disorder (BD) in youth is characterized by rapid fluctuation between high and low mood states, severe irritability, and multiple psychiatric comorbidities. Left untreated, affected youth may demonstrate compromised development in social, neurobiological, cognitive, and emotional realms (Miklowitz & Cicchetti 2006).

A DAT1 gene and APOE ε4 interaction is associated with apathy and structural brain changes in Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
Abstract Background Apathy in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is associated with significant morbidity. We examined whether interactions between genetic variants related to neurotransmitter systems and regional brain atrophy are associated with apathy in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and AD.

Genetic heterogeneity in ADHD: DAT1 gene only affects probands without CD [PDF]
AbstractPrevious studies have found heterogeneous association between DAT1‐3′‐UTR‐VNTR and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Various proportions of conduct disorder (CD) comorbidity in their ADHD samples may partially explain the observational discrepancies.

DNA binding properties of theSaccharomyces cerevisiae DAT1gene product [PDF]
The DAT1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a DNA binding protein (Dat1p) that specifically recognizes the minor groove of non-alternating oligo(A).oligo(T) tracts. Sequence-specific recognition requires arginine residues found within three perfectly repeated pentads (G-R-K-P-G) of the Dat1p DNA binding domain [Reardon, B. J., Winters, R.

Contribution of Dopamine Transporter Gene Methylation Status to Cannabis Dependency
The susceptibility to cannabis dependency results from the influence of numerous factors such as social, genetic, as well as epigenetic factors. Many studies have attempted to discover a molecular basis for this disease.
