Two dopamine D2-like receptor genes from the silkworm (Bombyx mori) and their evolutionary history in metazoan
Abstract Dopamine is widely distributed in metazoans and is implicated in many physiological functions. Dopaminergic signaling is mediated through two classes of dopamine receptors, D1-like and D2-like. Phylogeny analysis reveals that, the dopamine receptors probably appeared ahead of the cnidarian...
