This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 131 orthologues and 15 paralogues. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

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]
