ADRA2C wt Allele

Preferred Label : ADRA2C wt Allele;

NCIt synonyms : Adrenoceptor Alpha 2C wt Allele; Alpha2-AR-C4; ADRA2RL2; ALPHA2CAR; ADRA2L2; ADRARL2; Adrenergic, Alpha-2C-, Receptor Gene;

NCIt definition : Human ADRA2C wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 4p16 and is approximately 2 kb in length. This allele, which encodes alpha-2C adrenergic receptor protein, plays a role in the inhibition of G protein-coupled receptor-mediated adenylate cyclase activity.;

NCIt note : Subjects that were homozygous for both a base pair polymorphism in the ADRB1 gene and a deletion polymorphism in the ADRA2C gene are at higher risk for congestive heart failure and may demonstrate a modified response to beta-blocker therapy. (OMIM);
