| UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: TAAR8_HUMAN, Q969N4Function: Orphan receptor. Could be a receptor for trace amines. Trace amines are biogenic amines present in very lowlevels in mammalian tissues. Although some trace amines have clearly defined roles as neurotransmitters ininvertebrates, 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 Gene Wiki entry for TAAR8
