Gene ID: 440435, updated on 27-Aug-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CSNB1E; GPR158L; GPR158L1

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the glutamate receptor subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors. The encoded protein has an EGF-like calcium binding domain and a seven transmembrane domain in the N-terminal region of the protein.
