neuropeptides B/W receptor type 1; G-protein coupled receptor 7 (NPBWR1, GPR7)
Function:
- interacts specifically with a number of opioid ligands
- receptor for neuropeptides B & W, which may be involved in neuroendocrine system regulation, food intake & the organization of other signals
- higher affinity for neuropeptide B
Structure: belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family
Compartment: cell membrane; multi-pass membrane protein
Expression:
- found in cerebellum & frontal cortex
- expressed in hipppocampus, amygdala & trachea > fetal brain, pituitary gland & prostate
- not expressed in caudate, accumbens, kidney or liver
Pathology: detected at high levels in lung carcinoma
General
glycoprotein
G-protein coupled receptor; serpentine receptor
