Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable G protein-coupled receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and feeding behavior. Predicted to act upstream of or within adenylate cyclase-inhibiting G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in extracellular space. Orthologous to human NPB (neuropeptide B). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous and heterozygous null mice display hyperalgesia in response to inflammatory pain and mild adult-onset obesity.
