About Hcrtr2

Chromosome 9: 76,133,162-76,231,138 reverse strand.GRCm39:CM001002.3

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues, 16 paralogues and is associated with 8 phenotypes. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

Enables orexin receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within Phospholipase C-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; liver; lung; and spleen. Used to study narcolepsy. Orthologous to human HCRTR2 (hypocretin receptor 2).
