Gene Name ADRB1
Uniprot ID ADRB1_HUMAN
KEGG Pathway hsa:153
Protein Family G-protein coupled receptor 1 family
Protein 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. Mediates Ras activation through G(s)-alpha- and cAMP-mediated signaling. Involved in the regulation of sleep/wake behaviors (PubMed:31473062).
