Alpha-2C adrenergic receptor

BE0000342ProteinHumansADRA2C

Alpha-2 adrenergic receptors are G protein-coupled receptors for catecholamines that activate the G(i/o) protein pathway, thereby promoting adenylyl cyclase inhibition, ERK1/2 stimulation, and voltage-gated calcium channels suppression (PubMed:2842764). It is acted on by 68 drugs in DrugBank.
