Introduction

Dopamine receptors are a class of metabotropic G protein-coupled receptors that are important in the central nervous system. Dopamine receptors are involved in many neurological processes that comprise motivation, pleasure, cognition, memory, learning, and fine motor skills. There are five subtype dopamine receptors, D1, D2, D3, D4, and D5. The D3 receptor is a part of the D2-like family.[1]

Function

Human dopamine D3 receptor is a protein that is encoded by the dopamine receptor gene (DRD3).[2] The DRD3 gene codes for the D3 dopamine receptor that inhibits adenylyl cyclase through inhibitory G-proteins. G-proteins are a family of transmembrane proteins that transmit chemical signals outside the cell to cause changes inside of the cell. Adenylate cyclase is part of the G-proteins signalling and catalyze the conversion of ATP to cyclic AMP (cAMP).[3] This receptor is located in the brain, suggesting that the D3 receptor plays a role in cognitive and emotional functions.[4] The human dopamine D3 receptor is membrane-bound and scattered in the cytoplasm. Receptor stimulation causes internalization of the receptors at the perinuclear areas. This is followed by the spreading of the receptors to the membrane. DRD3 is contained in lipid rafts of renal proximal tubule cells.[5]

Structure

Human dopamine D3 receptor is 64% helical and 1% beta sheet. The protein is composed of 20 helices and 3 beta sheet strands. The helices are made up of 312 residues and the bate sheets are made up of 9 residues. The entire protein consists of 481 residues.[6] Dopamine D3 receptors are greatly expressed in the Islands of Calleja, a group of neural granule cells located within the ventral striatum in the brains of most animals, which is part of the limbic system. It is also found in the nucleus accumbens, a collection of neurons and forms the main part of the ventral striatum.[7]

Ligands

Many non-selective prescription drugs bind to the D3 receptor. The binding of drugs either increases or inhibits the production of dopamine D3 receptors which helps to diminish complications that are caused by certain diseases. Some agonist, agents that stimulate, dopamine receptors include[8]:

  • Amphetamine
  • Dopaminergic
  • Methamphetamine

Some antagonists, agents that inhibit dopamine receptors include[9]:

  • Bromopride
  • Clebopride
  • Eticlopride
  • Nafadotride

Two ligands that are associated with dopamine D3 receptor are 3-chloro-5-ethyl-N{[(2S)-1-ethylpyrrolidin-2-yl]methyl}-6-hydroxyl-2-methyloxybenzamide () and maltose (). ETQ binds to dopamine D3 receptor by Asp 110A and Phe346A. MAL binds by Asp 1020A, Glu 1022A, Glu1011A, and Leu1032A.[10]

Diseases

Variations in the DRD3 gene is connected with essential tremor hereditary type 1 (ETM1). ETM1 is the most common movement disorder involving postural tremor of the arms, head, legs, body core, voice, jaw, and other facial muscles. This condition can be provoked by emotions, hunger, fatigue, and temperature extremes.[11][12] Disorders that are linked to variations in the DRD3 gene include social phobia[13], Tourette’s syndrome[14], Parkinson’s disease[15], schizophrenia[16], neuroleptic malignant syndrome[17], attention-deficit hyperactivinty disorder (ADHD)[18], and drug and alcohol dependence[19] [20].
