Npy6r Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables peptide YY receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in neuropeptide signaling pathway. Predicted to be active in neuron projection and plasma membrane. Is expressed in embryo. Orthologous to human NPY6R (neuropeptide Y receptor Y6 (pseudogene)). [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 mouse Npy6r often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
