Also known as GPR58, taR-2, trace amine associated receptor 2, trace amine associated receptor 2 (gene/pseudogene)
Trace amine-associated receptor 2 (TAAR2), formerly known as G protein-coupled receptor 58 (GPR58), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAAR2 gene. TAAR2 is co-expressed with Gα proteins; however, its signal transduction mechanisms have not been determined.
Predicted to enable trace-amine receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

== Tissue distribution == Human TAAR2 (hTAAR2) is expressed in the cerebellum, olfactory sensory neurons in the olfactory epithelium, and leukocytes (i.e., white blood cells), among other tissues. hTAAR1 and hTAAR2 are both required for white blood cell activation by trace amines in granulocytes.
