Background: GABA-B R2

GABBR2 is half of a heterodimeric GPCR for GABA which mediates coupling to G proteins. B-type receptors for the neurotransmitter GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) inhibit neuronal activity through G protein-coupled second-messenger systems, which regulate the release of neurotransmitters and the activity of ion channels and adenylyl cyclase As a homodimer, GABBR2 is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum and endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment.  When GBR1/GBR2 heterodimers are present they are localized to the plasma membrane. GABBR2 is differentially expressed in the nervous system. GABBR2 and GABBR1 mRNA's are coexpressed in various brain regions such as the Purkinje cell layer of the cerebellum. In situ hybridization histochemistry using an antisensce probe to this novel receptor indicates GABBR2 is found exclusively in neurons. GABBR2 is implicated in synaptic inhibition, hippocampal long-term potentiation, slow wave sleep, muscle relaxation and nociception.
