GABBR2 Antibody Blocking Peptide

The multi-pass membrane protein encoded by this gene belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 3 family and GABA-B receptor subfamily. The GABA-B receptors inhibit neuronal activity through G protein-coupled second-messenger systems， which regulate the release of neurotransmitters， and the activity of ion channels and adenylyl cyclase. This receptor subunit forms an active heterodimeric complex with GABA-B receptor subunit 1， neither of which is effective on its own. Allelic variants of this gene have been associated with nicotine dependence.
