Dopamine (DA)-gated G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) mediate multiple functions of the nervous system.Aberrant signaling through these receptors is implicated in major neurological and psychiatric disorders such as Parkinsonism.The physiological and clinical importance of DA signaling makes it imperative to define its signaling and regulatory mechanism.
