The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- TAAR1 is a primarily intracellular amine-activated Gs-coupled and Gq-coupled G protein-coupled receptor that is primarily expressed in several peripheral organs and cells, astrocytes, and in the intracellular milieu within the presynaptic plasma membrane of monoamine neurons in the central nervous system.
- TAAR1 is one of six functional human TAARs, which are so named for their ability to bind endogenous amines that occur in tissues at trace concentrations.
- TAAR1 plays a significant role in regulating neurotransmission in dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin neurons in the CNS, it also affects immune system and neuroimmune system function through different mechanisms.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The TAAR1 article was read about 19,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 87 and blocks with 100: each hit it takes is cut by 40 %.
