Membrane (By similarity).

[edit] Developmental Stage

[edit] Similarity

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.

[edit] Post translational Modification

[edit] Function

Beta-adrenergic receptors mediate the catecholamine- induced activation of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. This receptor binds epinephrine and norepinephrine with approximately equal affinity (By similarity).
