Gpr137b Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of bone resorption; positive regulation of TORC1 signaling; and positive regulation of protein localization to lysosome. Predicted to be active in lysosomal membrane. Orthologous to human GPR137B (G protein-coupled receptor 137B). [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 rat Gpr137b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
