FUNCTION: Receptor for GABA. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G-proteins that inhibit adenylyl cyclase activity, stimulates phospholipase A2, activates potassium channels, inactivates voltage-dependent calcium-channels and modulates inositol phospholipids hydrolysis. Plays a critical role in the fine-tuning of inhibitory synaptic transmission. Pre-synaptic GABA-B-R inhibit neurotransmitter release by down-regulating high- voltage activated calcium channels, whereas postsynaptic GABA-B-R decrease neuronal excitability by activating a prominent inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) conductance that underlies the late inhibitory postsynaptic potentials. Not only implicated in synaptic inhibition but also in hippocampal long-term potentiation, slow wave sleep, muscle relaxation and antinociception. SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of GABA-B-R1 and GABA-B-R2. Neither of which is effective on its own and homodimeric assembly does not seem to happen. Interacts with ATF4 via its C-terminal region. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Moreover coexpression of GABA-B-R1 and GABA-B-R2 appears to be a prerequisite for maturation and transport of GABA-B-R1 to the plasma membrane. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in brain cortex, hippocampus, medial habenula, thalamus and cerebellum. Coexpression is seen in cerebellum. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Abundant in brain cortex and cerebellum throughout postnatal development whereas its expression in spinal cord gradually decreases. DOMAIN: Alpha-helical parts of the C-terminal intracellular region mediate heterodimeric interaction with GABA-B receptor 1. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 3 family. GABA-B receptor subfamily. GENE SYNONYMS:Gabbr2 Gpr51. COPYRIGHT: Protein annotation is derived from the UniProt Consortium (http://www.uniprot.org/).
