Source Organism

Fugu rubripes (Japanese pufferfish) (Takifugu rubripes).

Taxomomy

Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Actinopterygii; Neopterygii; Teleostei; Euteleostei; Neoteleostei;Acanthomorpha; Acanthopterygii; Percomorpha; Tetraodontiformes;Tetradontoidea; Tetraodontidae; Takifugu.

Subcellular Localization

Cell membrane; multi-pass membrane protein.

Developmental Stage

Similarity

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.

Post translational Modification

Function

This 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 inhibit adenylate cyclase activity (By similarity).
