ADRA2B - adrenoceptor alpha 2B Gene
Also Known as FAME2; ADRA2L1; ADRARL1; ADRA2RL1; ALPHA2BAR; alpha-2BAR
Species: Homo sapiens
About ADRA2B
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 222 orthologues, 18 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes.
Summary
This intronless gene encodes a seven-pass transmembrane protein. This protein is a member of a subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors that regulate neurotransmitter release from sympathetic nerves and from adrenergic neurons in the central nervous system. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]
