PROKR1 - prokineticin receptor 1 Gene
Also Known as ZAQ; PKR1; GPR73; PK-R1; GPR73a
Species: Homo sapiens
About PROKR1
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 109 orthologues and 33 paralogues. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 1.4), adrenal (RPKM 0.7) and 2 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the G-protein-coupled receptor family. The encoded protein binds to prokineticins (1 and 2), leading to the activation of MAPK and STAT signaling pathways. Prokineticins are protein ligands involved in angiogenesis and inflammation. The encoded protein is expressed in peripheral tissues such as those comprising the circulatory system, lungs, reproductive system, endocrine system and the gastrointestinal system. The protein may be involved in signaling in human fetal ovary during initiation of primordial follicle formation. Sequence variants in this gene may be associated with recurrent miscarriage.
