Description
Product Characteristics:
Beta-adrenergic receptors mediate the catecholamine-induced activation of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. Beta-3 is involved in the regulation of lipolysis and thermogenesis.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane
Synonyms: Adrb-3, Beta-3 adrenergic receptor, Beta-3 adrenoreceptor, Beta-3 adrenoceptor, Adrb3, Adrb3r, B3bar
Target Information: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of beta adrenergic receptors, which mediate catecholamine-induced activation of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. This receptor is located mainly in the adipose tissue and is involved in the regulation of lipolysis and thermogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]
