Sstr1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables somatostatin receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor; glutamate receptor signaling pathway; and neuropeptide signaling pathway. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; gut; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SSTR1 (somatostatin receptor 1). [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 mouse Sstr1 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
  • Cholecystokinin A receptor, N-terminal
  • protein homodimerization
  • somatostatin receptor
  • 7 transmembrane receptor (rhodopsin family)
  • protein binding
  • seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily
  • protein heterodimerization
