| UniProt functional annotation for P13945 | |||
| UniProt code: P13945. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Beta-adrenergic receptors mediate the catecholamine-induced activation of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. Beta- 3 is involved in the regulation of lipolysis and thermogenesis. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts with ARRDC3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21982743}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Expressed mainly in adipose tissues. | |
| Polymorphism: | The variant Arg-64 seems to be associated with weight gain (obesity) and is also associated with susceptibility to non- insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8721782, ECO:0000305|PubMed:7609752}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Adrenergic receptor subfamily. ADRB3 sub-subfamily. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00521}. | |
