Gene: NPFFR2

Alternate names for this Gene: GPR74|HLWAR77|NPFF2|NPGPR

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of a subfamily of G-protein-coupled neuropeptide receptors. This protein is activated by the neuropeptides A-18-amide (NPAF) and F-8-amide (NPFF) and may function in pain modulation and regulation of the opioid system. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 4

Location in Chromosome : 4q13.3

Description of this Gene: neuropeptide FF receptor 2

Type of Gene: protein-coding
