Mrgprd Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable G protein-coupled peptide receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and angiotensin-mediated vasodilation involved in regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human MRGPRD (MAS related GPR family member D). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Mrgprd 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
- G-protein coupled peptide receptor
- 7 transmembrane receptor (rhodopsin family)
