This gene encodes the D2 subtype of the dopamine receptor. This G-protein coupled receptor inhibits adenylyl cyclase activity. A missense mutation in this gene causes myoclonus dystonia; other mutations have been associated with schizophrenia. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. A third variant has been described, but it has not been determined whether this form is normal or due to aberrant splicing. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

Il recettore della dopamina D2, anche noto come RDD2 (DRD2 in inglese), è una proteina che nell'uomo è codificata dal gene RDD2. Il recettore della dopamina D2 è stato scoperto nel 1975 da Philip Seeman che lo ha definito il recettore antipsicotico della dopamina (antipsychotic dopamine receptor). L'RDD2 è il principale recettore per tutti i farmaci antipsicotici.
