Background
The neurotransmitter, serotonin, is thought to play a role in various cognitive and behavioral functions. The serotonin receptor encoded by this gene belongs to the superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors and the gene is a candidate locus for involvement in autistic disorder and other neuropsychiatric disorders. Three splice variants have been identified which encode proteins that differ in the length of their carboxy terminal ends. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
alternative products:Isoform A and isoform B appear to be expressed at higher levels,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 stimulate adenylate cyclase.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,tissue specificity:Isoform A is the predominant isoform in spleen, caudate and hippocampus. Isoform B is expressed at lower levels, and isoform D is a minor isoform.,
