GPR85 G protein-coupled receptor 85 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 54329)

Symbol: GPR85

Full name: G protein-coupled receptor 85

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: VALIDATED

Also known as: SREB; SREB2

Summary: Members of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family, such as GPR85, have a similar structure characterized by 7 transmembrane domains. Activation of GPCRs by extracellular stimuli, such as neurotransmitters, hormones, or light, induces an intracellular signaling cascade mediated by heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins, or G proteins (Matsumoto et al., 2000 [PubMed 10833454]).[supplied by OMIM, Aug 2008]

Expression: Biased expression in brain (RPKM 3.3), testis (RPKM 1.1) and 12 other tissues

Orthologs: mouse

Gene size: 5440bp

Exon count: 4
