ADGRA1 adhesion G protein-coupled receptor A1

Gene ID: 84435, updated on 28-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: GPR123

Summary

This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the adhesion family of G-protein-coupled receptors. Members of this family function in several sensory systems and regulate blood pressure, immune responses, food intake and development. A similar protein in rodents is thought to play a role in in the regulation of neuronal signaling pathways. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]
