Glp1r Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable glucagon receptor activity; glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor activity; and peptide hormone binding activity. Involved in several processes, including learning or memory; positive regulation of blood pressure; and response to psychosocial stress. Acts upstream of or within with a positive effect on hormone secretion. Acts upstream of or within post-translational protein targeting to membrane, translocation. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; gut; liver; and lung. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in obesity. Orthologous to human GLP1R (glucagon like peptide 1 receptor). [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 Glp1r often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
