VMAT2 is an integral membrane protein that acts to transport monoamines—particularly neurotransmitters such as dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin, and histamine—from cellular cytosol into synaptic vesicles. In humans, the VMAT2 protein is encoded by the VMAT2 gene. Geneticist Dean Hamer identified the VMAT2 gene as correlating with spirituality using data from a smoking survey, which included questions intended to measure "self-transcendence". Hamer performed the spirituality study on the side, independently of the National Cancer Institute smoking study. His findings were published in the mass-market book According to Carl Zimmer, Hamer's study has not been academically published and depends on minor statistical variance.
Human Synaptic vesicular amine transporter (SLC18A2) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate SLC18A2 in samples. An antibody specific for SLC18A2 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anySLC18A2 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for SLC18A2 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of SLC18A2 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
