Crhr1 - corticotropin releasing hormone receptor 1 Gene

Mus musculus

Also known as Crhr; CRF1R; CRFR1

Gene ID: 12921 | Gene type: protein coding

About Crhr1

Biased expression in cerebellum adult (RPKM 7.7), frontal lobe adult (RPKM 4.7) and 6 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a G-protein coupled receptor that binds corticotropin-releasing factor (CRH) and urocortin (UCN) with high affinity. The encoded protein upregulates Adenylate Cyclase activity and intracellular cAMP levels. This protein is essential for the activation of signal transduction pathways that regulate diverse physiological processes including stress, reproduction, immune response, and obesity. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
