Full name: tachykinin receptor 3

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: HH11; NK-3R; NK3; NK3R; NKR; TAC3R; TAC3RL

Summary: This gene belongs to a family of genes that function as receptors for tachykinins. Receptor affinities are specified by variations in the 5'-end of the sequence. The receptors belonging to this family are characterized by interactions with G proteins and 7 hydrophobic transmembrane regions. This gene encodes the receptor for the tachykinin neurokinin 3, also referred to as neurokinin B. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
