| Primary Identifier | MGI:3630329 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 227717 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables orexigenic neuropeptide QRFP receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including grooming behavior; locomotory behavior; and regulation of feeding behavior. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Orthologous to human QRFP (pyroglutamylated RFamide peptide). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit decreased body weight and fat mass, hypophagia, decreased serum leptin level, hypoactivity, increased anxiety-like behavior, and decreased wakefulness in the early hours of the dark period.
