Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables dopamine neurotransmitter receptor activity, coupled via Gs. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including learning; long-term synaptic depression; and regulation of blood pressure. Located in brush border membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; and hemolymphoid system gland. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and blepharospasm. Orthologous to human DRD5 (dopamine receptor D5).
