Oxtr - oxytocin receptor Gene
Also Known as OTR
Species: Mus musculus
About Oxtr
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 265 orthologues, 16 paralogues and is associated with 14 phenotypes. Biased expression in adrenal adult (RPKM 71.9), mammary gland adult (RPKM 22.4) and 3 other tissues.
Summary
Predicted to enable Oxytocin Receptor activity; peptide hormone binding activity; and Vasopressin Receptor activity. Involved in positive regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of blood pressure. Predicted to be located in adherens junction; apical plasma membrane; and microvillus. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; brain; genitourinary system; integumental system; and small intestine. Orthologous to human OXTR (Oxytocin Receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
