Caenorhabditis elegans Enables dopamine neurotransmitter receptor activity. Involved in adenylate cyclase-activating dopamine receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in dendrite. Expressed in intestine; neurons; rectum; and vulva. Used to study alcohol use disorder. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease and hypertension. Is an ortholog of human ADRA1A (adrenoceptor alpha 1A) and ADRA1B (adrenoceptor alpha 1B).
