Gpr155 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable cholesterol binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to amino acid starvation; cellular response to cholesterol; and regulation of signal transduction. Predicted to be active in lysosomal membrane. Orthologous to human GPR155 (G protein-coupled receptor 155). [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 Gpr155 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
- Domain found in Dishevelled, Egl-10, and Pleckstrin (DEP)
- DEP
- cholesterol binding
- Membrane transport protein
