G protein-coupled receptor for catecholamines that couples to both G(s) and G(i) proteins, leading to either activation or inhibition of adenylate cyclase and cAMP-dependent pathway, respectively (PubMed:10188996, PubMed:2570461, PubMed:8641219). The rank order of potency for physiological agonists is norepinephrine > epinephrine (PubMed:10188996, PubMed:2570461, PubMed:8641219). Involved in the regulation of thermogenesis and lipolysis in brown and white adipose tissue, after coupling to G(s) proteins and stimulation of the cAMP-PKA axis (By similarity). Also activates lipolytic process by…
