Avpr2 - arginine vasopressin receptor 2 Gene
Also Known as DI1; DIR; ND1; V2R; ADHR; VPV2R
Species: Mus musculus
About Avpr2
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 233 orthologues, 16 paralogues and is associated with 12 phenotypes. Biased expression in kidney adult (RPKM 17.2), thymus adult (RPKM 4.6) and 1 other tissue.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family and the vasopressin/Oxytocin Receptor subfamily. The encoded protein is an arginine Vasopressin Receptor which, when stimulated, activates the Gs protein/adenylyl cyclase signaling cascade and is involved in water and electrolyte homeostasis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]
