Monoamine

In biochemistry, monoamines are a group of organic compounds containing only one amino group. Several mood disorders are explained as due to either an excess or deficiency of monoamines. When a cell needs to transport a monoamine in or out of a cell, they use a class of proteins called monoamine transporters.
