Also known as: Gm478; Gpr41
Summary: Enables G protein-coupled receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of acute inflammatory response to non-antigenic stimulus; positive regulation of cytokine production; and regulation of secretion by cell. Acts upstream of or within adenylate cyclase-inhibiting G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of neuronal action potential; and regulation of heart rate by chemical signal. Is active in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; gut; peripheral nerve trunk; spleen; and sympathetic nervous system. Orthologous to several human genes including FFAR3 (free fatty acid receptor 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
