Primary Identifier | MGI:2441719 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 229714 |
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 activity and arrestin family protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in ligand-independent adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in endosome membrane. Predicted to be part of receptor complex. Predicted to be active in endosome and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human GPR61 (G protein-coupled receptor 61). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit hyperphagia, obesity, increased liver weight and liver triglyceride content, increased visceral fat pad weight, and increased circulating insulin and leptin levels.
