The dopamine receptor D <sub>5</sub> gene shows signs of independent erosion in Toothed and Baleen whales

2019-02-21

Abstract excerpt

To compare gene loci considering a phylogenetic framework is a promising approach to uncover the genetic basis of human diseases. Imbalance of dopaminergic systems is suspected to underlie some emerging neurological disorders. The physiological functions of dopamine are transduced via G-protein-coupled receptors, including DRD 5 which displays a relatively higher affinity towards dopamine. Importantly, DRD 5 kn...
