Kiss1r Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables G protein-coupled peptide receptor activity and neuropeptide binding activity. Involved in several processes, including arachidonate secretion; positive regulation of cell communication; and positive regulation of stress fiber assembly. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cell surface; cilium; and intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in central precocious puberty 1; hypogonadism; and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 8 with or without anosmia. Orthologous to human KISS1R (KISS1 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 rat Kiss1r often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
