Abstract excerpt
The human dopamine 2 receptor (hD2R) modulates locomotor activity, hormone secretion, and neuropsychiatric function. Current knowledge of the hD2R structure is in large part derived from mutagenesis studies and molecular pharmacologic analysis together with homology modeling using bovine rhodopsin as a template. In this study, we utilized comparison of the Drosophila D2-like receptor (DD2R) with the hD2R as a...
