Could be a receptor for trace amines. Trace amines are biogenic amines present in very low levels in mammalian tissues. Although some trace amines have clearly defined roles as neurotransmitters in invertebrates, the extent to which they function as true neurotransmitters in vertebrates has remained speculative. Trace amines are likely to be involved in a variety of physiological functions that have yet to be fully understood. |7tm 1| |7TM GPCR Srsx| |trace-amine receptor activity| |G protein-coupled receptor activity| |G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp344|Chlorpromazine 10μM R07 exp344]]|-2.07| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
