| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables G protein-coupled serotonin receptor activity and serotonin binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of serotonin secretion and phospholipase C-activating serotonin receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within adenylate cyclase-inhibiting G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; bone remodeling; and response to toxic substance. Located in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Part of G protein-coupled serotonin receptor complex. Is active in presynaptic membrane and serotonergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; eye; gonad; and immune system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including alcohol dependence; antisocial personality disorder; attention deficit hyperactivity disorder; conduct disorder; and substance abuse (multiple). Orthologous to human HTR1B (5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1B). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit an increase in body weight, aggression, drinking behavior, and osteoblast proliferation and bone mass, and show altered spatial learning and operant conditional behavior as well as reduced anxiety-related response and startle reflex, and small testes.
