Gene: GPR61

Alternate names for this Gene: BALGR|GPCR3

Gene Summary: This gene belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. G protein-coupled receptors contain 7 transmembrane domains and transduce extracellular signals through heterotrimeric G proteins. The protein encoded by this gene is most closely related to biogenic amine receptors.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1p13.3

Description of this Gene: G protein-coupled receptor 61

Type of Gene: protein-coding
