Function | Olfactory receptor specific for trace amines, such as N,N- dimethylcyclohexylamine (DMCHA) and beta-phenylethylamine (beta-PEA) (By similarity). In contrast to mouse and rat orthologs, not activated by triethylamine, cadaverine (CAD) or spermidine (PubMed:34600890). Trace amine compounds are enriched in animal body fluids and act on trace amine-associated receptors (TAARs) to elicit both intraspecific and interspecific innate behaviors (By similarity). Trace amine-binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via G(s)-class of G alpha proteins (GNAL or GNAS) (By similarity). In mature olfactory sensory neurons, TAAR9 is coupled with GNAL/G(olf)G alpha protein and mediates activation of adenylate cyclase activity to activate cAMP signaling and eventually transmit odorant signals to achieve membrane depolarization (By similarity). In immature olfactory sensory neurons, TAAR9 is coupled with GNAS/G(s) G alpha proteins (By similarity). |

Background
Orphan receptor. Could be a receptor for trace amines. Trace amines are biogenic amines present in very low levels in mammalian tissues. Although some trace amines have clearly defined roles as neurotransmitters in invertebrates, the extent to which they function as true neurotransmitters in vertebrates has remained speculative. Trace amines are likely to be involved in a variety of physiological functions that have yet to be fully understood.
