Gpr156 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable G protein-coupled GABA receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in gamma-aminobutyric acid signaling pathway and stereocilium bundle organization. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of G protein-coupled receptor heterodimeric complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness. Orthologous to human GPR156 (G protein-coupled receptor 156).

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 Gpr156 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
  • 7 transmembrane sweet-taste receptor of 3 GCPR
  • seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily
