Trace amine-associated receptor 2 (TAAR2), formerly known as G protein-coupled receptor 58 (GPR58), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAAR2 gene.^[5]^[6]^[7]^[8] TAAR2 is coexpressed with G_α proteins;^[8] however, as of February 2017, its signal transduction mechanisms have not been determined.^[8]

Human TAAR2 (hTAAR2) is expressed in the cerebellum, olfactory sensory neurons in the olfactory epithelium, and leukocytes (i.e., white blood cells), among other tissues.^[9]^[10] hTAAR1 and hTAAR2 are both required for white blood cell activation by trace amines in granulocytes.^[11]

In mice TAAR2 is expressed in several brain regions including hippocampus, cerebellum, cortex, raphe nuclei and habenula.^[12]

TAAR2 knockout mice have significantly higher level of dopamine in the striatum tissue than wild-type littermates and lower level of norepinephrine in hippocampus. Also, TAAR2 knockout mice have lower levels of MAO-B expression in midbrain and striatum.^[12]

A single nucleotide polymorphism nonsense mutation of the TAAR2 gene is associated with schizophrenia.^[8]^[9] TAAR2 is a probable pseudogene in 10–15% of Asians as a result of a polymorphism that produces a premature stop codon at amino acid 168.^[8]

3‐iodo‐thyronamine(T1AM) was identified as a nonselective ligand for TAAR2.^[10]
