Also Known as GRFR; GHRFR; IGHD4; IGHD1B

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 2692

About GHRHR

Cytogenetic location: 7p14.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:30,963,953-30,979,528 (from NCBI)

This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 193 orthologues, 42 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

This gene encodes a receptor for growth hormone-releasing hormone. Binding of this hormone to the receptor leads to synthesis and release of growth hormone. Mutations in this gene have been associated with isolated growth hormone deficiency (IGHD), also known as Dwarfism of Sindh, a disorder characterized by short stature. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]
