Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
12535676 Site-directed mutagenesis studies show that the receptor binds various amino acids.
16289891 In neurons, exogenous mushroom body octopamine receptors activate the same signal pathway as endogenous mGluRs, suggesting that diverse neuronal responses mediated by Gq-coupled receptors are due to the properties of different neurons.
16826564 Our work provides the first evidence that adult abdominal type II visceral innervations co-express Glu and OA and allows us to re-evaluate the previous model of neuronal network controlling insect oviduct contraction.
14623240 Data describe the requirement for the octopamine receptor OAMB in the body, but not in the brain, for female fecundity.
15816867 Expression of these unique octopamine receptors causes oscillatory increase of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration, activates adenylate cyclase, and induces a rise of intracellular cyclic AMP.
