Avpr1b Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable vasopressin receptor activity. Involved in regulation of blood pressure. Acts upstream of or within regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure by vasopressin. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; eye; genitourinary system; and immune system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autism spectrum disorder; bipolar disorder; and mood disorder. Orthologous to human AVPR1B (arginine vasopressin receptor 1B).

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 Avpr1b 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
  • vasopressin receptor
  • protein kinase C binding
  • 7 transmembrane receptor (rhodopsin family)
  • Vasopressin V1 receptor, C-terminal
  • identical protein binding
  • seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily
  • polypeptide hormone binding
