GPR78 - G protein-coupled receptor 78 Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About GPR78
This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 171 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Biased expression in placenta (RPKM 2.0), esophagus (RPKM 0.8) and 1 other tissue.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the G protein-coupled receptor family, which contain 7 transmembrane domains and transduce extracellular signals through heterotrimeric G proteins. This is an Orphan Receptor, which displays significant level of constitutive activity. Association analysis shows preliminary evidence for the involvement of this gene in susceptibility to bipolar affective disorder and schizophrenia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2011]
