Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
Alpha-2-adrenergic receptors are members of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily. The alpha-2-adrenergic receptors are a type of adrenergic receptors (for adrenaline or epinephrine), which inhibit adenylate cyclase. These receptors include 3 highly

Protein
UniProt ID P08913
Protein name Alpha-2A adrenergic receptor (Alpha-2 adrenergic receptor subtype C10) (Alpha-2A adrenoreceptor) (Alpha-2A adrenoceptor) (Alpha-2AAR)
Protein function Alpha-2 adrenergic receptors mediate the catecholamine-induced inhibition of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. The rank order of potency for agonists of this receptor is oxymetazoline > clonidine > epinephrine > norepinephrine
