The gene encodes the instructions for the so-called D4 dopamine receptor, one of five receptors known to play a role in the brain's response to dopamine.
Mormyrid electric fish from Africa use tuberous receptors known as Knollenorgans to sense electric communication signals.
Purinergic receptors, also known as purinoceptors, are a family of plasma membrane molecules that are found in almost all mammalian tissues.
The combination of messenger with receptor causes a change in the conformation of the receptor, known as receptor activation.
They belong to a larger family of receptors known as the purinergic receptors.
