In humans, molecular modelling and docking experiments have shown thatputrescine fits into the binding pocket of the humanTAAR6 andTAAR8 receptors.[9]
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs, or GPRs) contain 7 transmembrane domains and transduce extracellular signals through heterotrimeric G proteins, supplied byOMIM[7]

Notes: (1) TAAR1 activity of ligands varies significantly between species. Some agents that are TAAR1 ligands in some species are not in other species. This navbox includes all TAAR1 ligands regardless of species. (2) See the individual pages for references, as well as theList of trace amines,TAAR, andTAAR1 pages.
