From Proteopedia
Crystal structure of the chimeric protein of 5-HT2B-BRIL in complex with ergotamine
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23519215
Function
[5HT2B_HUMAN] 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. This receptor mediates its action by association with G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. Plays a role in the regulation of impulsive behavior.
