Gene

Adra2a

Species
Rattus norvegicus
Symbol
Adra2a
Name
adrenoceptor alpha 2A
Synonyms
  • Adrenergic alpha 2A receptor
  • adrenergic receptor, alpha 2a
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables alpha2-adrenergic receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of secretion by cell; negative regulation of uterine smooth muscle contraction; and response to morphine. Located in axon terminus and neuronal cell body. Is active in GABA-ergic synapse; glutamatergic synapse; and synaptic membrane. Used to study anxiety disorder and depressive disorder. Biomarker of alcohol dependence; hypertension; morphine dependence; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including alcohol dependence; attention deficit hyperactivity disorder; familial partial lipodystrophy; nicotine dependence; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human ADRA2A (adrenoceptor alpha 2A).
