Target type: molecularfunction
Enables the transfer of a solute or solutes from one side of a membrane to the other according to the reaction: neurotransmitter(out) + Na+(out) = neurotransmitter(in) + Na+(in). [TC:2.A.22.-.-]
Neurotransmitter:sodium symporters (NSSs) are integral membrane proteins responsible for the active transport of neurotransmitters across the plasma membrane of neurons and glial cells. They utilize the electrochemical gradient of sodium ions (Na+) to drive the uptake of neurotransmitters from the synaptic cleft back into the presynaptic neuron or into the glial cell. This process is essential for terminating neurotransmission, recycling neurotransmitters for subsequent release, and preventing excessive neurotransmitter accumulation in the synapse.
NSSs typically exhibit high affinity for their specific neurotransmitters, ensuring efficient reuptake. Their mechanism involves the following steps:
1. **Binding of neurotransmitter and Na+ ions:** The neurotransmitter and Na+ ions bind to the transporter protein at specific sites.
2. **Conformational change:** Binding of the substrates induces a conformational change in the transporter protein, opening a channel to allow the movement of both the neurotransmitter and Na+ ions across the membrane.
3. **Translocation:** The neurotransmitter and Na+ ions are translocated across the membrane, with the neurotransmitter moving from the extracellular to the intracellular space and Na+ moving down its concentration gradient.
4. **Release and reset:** Once the neurotransmitter and Na+ ions are transported, the transporter protein reverts to its original conformation, ready to bind new substrates.
NSSs play crucial roles in regulating neurotransmission, synaptic plasticity, and neuronal signaling. Dysregulation of NSS activity can lead to various neurological disorders, including depression, anxiety, and epilepsy. Therefore, NSSs are important targets for therapeutic interventions aimed at modulating neurotransmission and treating neurological conditions.'

| clozapine | clozapine : A benzodiazepine that is 5H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepine substituted by a chloro group at position 8 and a 4-methylpiperazin-1-yl group at position 11. It is a second generation antipsychotic used in the treatment of psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia. Clozapine: A tricylic dibenzodiazepine, classified as an atypical antipsychotic agent. It binds several types of central nervous system receptors, and displays a unique pharmacological profile. Clozapine is a serotonin antagonist, with strong binding to 5-HT 2A/2C receptor subtype. It also displays strong affinity to several dopaminergic receptors, but shows only weak antagonism at the dopamine D2 receptor, a receptor commonly thought to modulate neuroleptic activity. Agranulocytosis is a major adverse effect associated with administration of this agent. | benzodiazepine; N-arylpiperazine; N-methylpiperazine; organochlorine compound | adrenergic antagonist; dopaminergic antagonist; EC 3.4.21.26 (prolyl oligopeptidase) inhibitor; environmental contaminant; GABA antagonist; histamine antagonist; muscarinic antagonist; second generation antipsychotic; serotonergic antagonist; xenobiotic |
| olanzapine | olanzapine : A benzodiazepine that is 10H-thieno[2,3-b][1,5]benzodiazepine substituted by a methyl group at position 2 and a 4-methylpiperazin-1-yl group at position 4. Olanzapine: A benzodiazepine derivative that binds SEROTONIN RECEPTORS; MUSCARINIC RECEPTORS; HISTAMINE H1 RECEPTORS; ADRENERGIC ALPHA-1 RECEPTORS; and DOPAMINE RECEPTORS. It is an antipsychotic agent used in the treatment of SCHIZOPHRENIA; BIPOLAR DISORDER; and MAJOR DEPRESSIVE DISORDER; it may also reduce nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing chemotherapy. | benzodiazepine; N-arylpiperazine; N-methylpiperazine | antiemetic; dopaminergic antagonist; histamine antagonist; muscarinic antagonist; second generation antipsychotic; serotonergic antagonist; serotonin uptake inhibitor |
