Gpr1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable several functions, including adipokinetic hormone binding activity; adipokinetic hormone receptor activity; and neuropeptide binding activity. Predicted to be involved in glucose homeostasis and neuropeptide signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in neuron projection and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human CMKLR2 (chemerin chemokine-like receptor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Gpr1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • G-protein coupled receptor
  • extracellular domain
  • Cholecystokinin A receptor, N-terminal
  • 7 transmembrane receptor (rhodopsin family)
  • protein-hormone receptor
  • protein binding
  • seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily
  • polypeptide hormone binding
