Htr5a Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable Gi/o-coupled serotonin receptor activity and neurotransmitter receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in perikaryon. Predicted to be active in dendrite and postsynaptic specialization membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; and liver and biliary system. Orthologous to human HTR5A (5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 5A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Htr5a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
