    Summary
    Enables G protein-coupled GABA receptor activity. Involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; negative regulation of cholinergic synaptic transmission; and response to xenobiotic stimulus. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of G protein-coupled receptor heterodimeric complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol use disorder; developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 59; and nicotine dependence. Orthologous to human GABBR2 (gamma-aminobutyric acid type B receptor subunit 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
