A Four Amino Acid Deletion Polymorphism in the Third Intracellular Loop of the Human α2C-Adrenergic Receptor Confers Impaired Coupling to Multiple Effectors
1 Jul 2000
Abstract excerpt
The alpha(2)-adrenergic receptors (alpha(2)ARs) play a critical role in modulating neurotransmitter release in the central and peripheral sympathetic nervous systems. A polymorphism of the alpha(2)AR subtype localized to human chromosome 4 (the pharmacologic alpha(2C)AR subtype) within an intracellular domain has been identified in normal individuals. The polymorphism (denoted Del322-325) is because of an...
