Full name: neuromedin U receptor 2

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: FM-4; FM4; NMU-R2; NMU2R; TGR-1; TGR1

Summary: This gene encodes a protein from the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. This protein is a receptor for neuromedin U, which is a neuropeptide that is widely distributed in the gut and central nervous system. This receptor plays an important role in the regulation of food intake and body weight. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
