Trhr Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and thyrotropin-releasing hormone receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in phospholipase C-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration; and positive regulation of protein-containing complex assembly. Predicted to be located in cell surface. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; heart; sensory organ; and skeleton. Used to study congenital hypothyroidism. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital nongoitrous hypothyroidism 7 and hypertension. Orthologous to human TRHR (thyrotropin releasing hormone receptor).

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 Trhr 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
  • internalization targeting signal
  • thyrotropin-releasing hormone receptor
  • Cholecystokinin A receptor, N-terminal
  • 7 transmembrane receptor (rhodopsin family)
  • tail domain
  • protein binding
  • identical protein binding
