GeneID: 1269 Human CNR2

Swiss-port # P34972 Human Cannabinoid receptor 2

Gene Symbol CNR2
Gene Full Name cannabinoid receptor 2 (macrophage)
Background The cannabinoid delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol is the principal psychoactive ingredient of marijuana. The proteins encoded by this gene and the cannabinoid receptor 1 (brain) (CNR1) gene have the characteristics of a guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G-protein)-coupled receptor for cannabinoids. They inhibit adenylate cyclase activity in a dose-dependent, stereoselective, and pertussis toxin-sensitive manner. These proteins have been found to be involved in the cannabinoid-induced CNS effects (including alterations in mood and cognition) experienced by users of marijuana. The cannabinoid receptors are members of family 1 of the G-protein-coupled receptors. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function Heterotrimeric G protein-coupled receptor for endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol mediating inhibition of adenylate cyclase. May function in inflammatory response, nociceptive transmission and bone homeostasis. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell projection, dendrite. Perikaryon. Note=Localizes to apical dendrite of pyramidal neurons. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 40 kDa
PTM Constitutively phosphorylated on Ser-352; phosphorylation increases cell internalization and desensitizes the receptor. [UniProt]
