Description

The HTR1F gene encodes the 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1F (5-HT1F), a G protein-coupled receptor for serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine). It is primarily expressed in the central nervous system, particularly in the cortex, hippocampus, and trigeminal ganglia. Activation of 5-HT1F inhibits adenylyl cyclase activity, reducing cAMP levels. This receptor is a target for triptan drugs used in migraine therapy, as it modulates neurotransmitter release and vasoconstriction.

Protein Summary

The 5-HT1F receptor is a 366-amino acid integral membrane protein with seven transmembrane domains. It couples to Gi/Go proteins, inhibiting adenylyl cyclase and reducing intracellular cAMP. The receptor is involved in serotonergic neurotransmission and is a key target for acute migraine treatment. Its expression in trigeminal ganglia supports a role in pain modulation.
