GPR26 G protein-coupled receptor 26 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 2849)
Symbol: GPR26
Full name: G protein-coupled receptor 26
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Summary: This gene encodes a G protein-couple receptor protein. G-protein-coupled receptors are a large family of membrane proteins that are involved in cellular responses to environmental stimuli, neurotransmitters, and hormones. The encoded protein may play a role in neurodegenerative diseases. Epigenetic silencing of this gene has been observed in gliomas. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]
