Synonyms | ADRA2L1, ADRA2RL1 |
Function | Alpha-2 adrenergic receptors mediate the catecholamine- induced inhibition of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. The rank order of potency for agonists of this receptor is clonidine > norepinephrine > epinephrine = oxymetazoline > dopamine > p-tyramine = phenylephrine > serotonin > p-synephrine / p-octopamine. For antagonists, the rank order is yohimbine > chlorpromazine > phentolamine > mianserine > spiperone > prazosin > alprenolol > propanolol > pindolol. |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Interaction with RAB26, GGA1, GGA2 and GGA3 mediates transport from the Golgi to the cell membrane. |
