| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.1.0) Enables glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; learning or memory; and response to psychosocial stress. Acts upstream of or within with a positive effect on hormone secretion. Acts upstream of or within post-translational protein targeting to membrane, translocation. Is active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; gut; liver; and lung. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in obesity. Orthologous to human GLP1R (glucagon like peptide 1 receptor). PHENOTYPE: Glucose tolerance and pancreatic secretion is impaired in homozygous null mice. [provided by MGI curators] |
