Summary: (from NCBI-Entrez) ..[read more]This gene encodes beta-2-adrenergic receptor which is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily. This receptor is directly associated with one of its ultimate effectors, the class C L-type calcium channel Ca(V)1.2. This receptor-channel compl
The adrenergic receptors mediate the physiological effects of the hormone epinephrine and the neurotransmitter norepinephrine, the latter is converted upon dopamine beta-hydroxylase.
