Comments
Comment typeDescription
Alternative ProductsEvent=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=3; Comment=Isoform A and isoform B appear to be expressed at higher levels.; Name=D; IsoId=P34969-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=A; IsoId=P34969-2; Sequence=VSP_001857; Name=B; IsoId=P34969-3; Sequence=VSP_001856;
FunctionThis is one of the several different receptors for 5- hydroxytryptamine (serotonin), a biogenic hormone that functions as a neurotransmitter, a hormone, and a mitogen. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase.
SimilarityBelongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00521}.
Subcellular LocationCell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue SpecificityIsoform A is the predominant isoform in spleen, caudate and hippocampus. Isoform B is expressed at lower levels. Isoform D is a minor isoform in term of expression. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9084407}.
