| Description | Beta-2 adrenergic receptor (Beta-2 adrenoceptor) (Beta-2adrenoreceptor). |
| Organism | Homo sapiens |
| Txonomy | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini;Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. |
| Subcellular Location | Cell membrane; multi-pass membrane protein |
| Developmental Stage | NA |
| Similarity | Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. |
| Post Translational Modification | Palmitoylated; may reduce accessibility of Ser-345 and Ser- 346 by anchoring Cys-341 to the plasma membrane. Agonist stimulation promotes depalmitoylation and further allows Ser-345 and Ser-346 phosphorylation. Phosphorylated by PKA and BARK upon agonist stimulation; which mediates homologous desensitization of the receptor. PKA- mediated phosphorylation seems to facilitate phosphorylation by BARK. |
| Function | Beta-adrenergic receptors mediate the catecholamine- induced activation of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. The beta-2-adrenergic receptor binds epinephrine with an approximately 30-fold greater affinity than it does norepinephrine. |
