Background: Dopamine D5 R/DRD5

DRD5, also known as Dopamine D5 Receptor has a higher affinity for neurotransmitter dopamine than DRD1 (1). DRD5 is expressed in neurons in many human brain regions, including cortex regions, hippocampus, choroid plexus, and brainstem (2). Polymorphisms in the DRD5 gene have been associated with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) (3), schizopherenia (4) and nicotine dependence (5). Dopamine receptors undergo endocytosis upon interaction with receptor agonists and by activation of protein kinase C (PKC) (6).
