GPR61 G protein-coupled receptor 61

Gene ID: 83873, updated on 17-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: BALGR; GPCR3

Summary

This gene belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. G protein-coupled receptors contain 7 transmembrane domains and transduce extracellular signals through heterotrimeric G proteins. The protein encoded by this gene is most closely related to biogenic amine receptors. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
