Difference between Dopamine receptor D2 and Growth hormone secretagogue receptor

Dopamine receptor D2 vs. Growth hormone secretagogue receptor

Dopamine receptor D2, also known as D2R, is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the DRD2 gene. Growth hormone secretagogue receptor(GHS-R), also known as ghrelin receptor, is a G protein-coupled receptor that binds growth hormone secretagogues (GHSs), such as ghrelin, the "hunger hormone".

Similarities between Dopamine receptor D2 and Growth hormone secretagogue receptor

Dopamine receptor D2 and Growth hormone secretagogue receptor have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): G protein–coupled receptor, Protein dimer, Protein kinase B, Receptor (biochemistry).

G protein–coupled receptor

G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs), also known as seven-(pass)-transmembrane domain receptors, 7TM receptors, heptahelical receptors, serpentine receptor, and G protein–linked receptors (GPLR), constitute a large protein family of receptors that detect molecules outside the cell and activate internal signal transduction pathways and, ultimately, cellular responses.

Protein dimer

In biochemistry, a protein dimer is a macromolecular complex formed by two protein monomers, or single proteins, which are usually non-covalently bound.

Protein kinase B

Protein kinase B (PKB), also known as Akt, is a serine/threonine-specific protein kinase that plays a key role in multiple cellular processes such as glucose metabolism, apoptosis, cell proliferation, transcription and cell migration.
