Function |
Auxiliary subunit of GABA-B receptors that determine the pharmacology and kinetics of the receptor response. Increases agonist potency and markedly alter the G-protein signaling of the receptors by accelerating onset and promoting desensitization (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell junction, synapse, presynaptic cell membrane {ECO:0000250}. Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic cell membrane {ECO:0000250}.
