Serotonin receptors sequence homology

Key Words G Protein-coupled receptors serotonin receptors rhodopsin sequence homology molecular models protein structure. [Pg.39]

In addition to its receptors, serotonin has transporter molecules and there are alkaloids that interfere with the transport and uptake process. DNA s for serotonin transporters of rat leukemia cells have been cloned and sequenced. One of them has a 653 residue protein with 12-13 transmembrane domains. Interestingly they show considerable homology with transporters of some other transmitter substances and are sensitive to cocaine, reserpine and several other alkaloids [229,230,231,232]. Thus the inhibitory action of serotonin can be reduced not only by substances that act on its receptor but also by substances that hinder its access to the receptor [233]. [Pg.22]
