Gene information for CHRM5 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID1133
Official gene symbolCHRM5
Full namecholinergic receptor, muscarinic 5
Aliases,HM5,MGC41838,
Gene summaryThe muscarinic cholinergic receptors belong to a larger family of G protein-coupled receptors. The functional diversity of these receptors is defined by the binding of acetylcholine and includes cellular responses such as adenylate cyclase inhibition, phosphoinositide degeneration, and potassium channel mediation. Muscarinic receptors influence many effects of acetylcholine in the central and peripheral nervous system. The clinical implications of this receptor are unknown; however, stimulation of this receptor is known to increase cyclic AMP levels. [provided by RefSeq]
