GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
HTR1B (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
5-HT1B, 5-HT1DB, HTR1D2, S12
Description
5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) receptor 1B, G protein-coupled (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this intronless gene is a G-protein coupled receptor for serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine). Ligand binding activates second messengers that inhibit the activity of adenylate cyclase and manage the release of serotonin, dopamine, and acetylcholine in the brain. The encoded protein may be involved in several neuropsychiatric disorders and therefore is often a target of antidepressant and other psychotherapeutic drugs. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
