Background
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of beta adrenergic receptors, which mediate catecholamine-induced activation of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. This receptor is located mainly in the adipose tissue and is involved in the regulation of lipolysis and thermogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009],
Function
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.,polymorphism:The variant Arg-64 seems to be associated with weight gain (obesity) and to is also associated with susceptibility to non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM).,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,tissue specificity:Expressed mainly in adipose tissues.,
