Adrb1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables amine binding activity and beta1-adrenergic receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cation transmembrane transport; regulation of heart contraction; and regulation of muscle system process. Located in plasma membrane. Used to study congestive heart failure; dilated cardiomyopathy; myocardial infarction; periodontitis; and renovascular hypertension. Biomarker of hyperglycemia; hypertension; and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; hypertension (multiple); low tension glaucoma; obstructive sleep apnea; and periodontitis. Orthologous to human ADRB1 (adrenoceptor beta 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 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 rat Adrb1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
