The evolutionary divergence of neurotransmitter receptors and second-messenger pathways.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Jul 1995

Fryxell K J

Abstract excerpt

Members of the superfamily of G-protein-coupled neurotransmitter receptors have a conserved secondary structure, a moderate and reasonably steady rate of sequence change, and usually lack introns within the coding sequence. These properties are advantageous for evolutionary studies. The duplication and divergence of the genes in this gene family led to the formation of distinct neurotransmitter pathways and may...
